Ninja Turtle Mask

Nowadays, it's not easy being a mom, Ryan requested a Ninja Turtle mask, so I tried to make one for him.  However, he said:

Ryan:  Ninja Turtle mask is not black colour.  Can you make a orange one for me?
Mom:  Huh?
Daddy:  Ya, it doesn't look like Ninja Turtle mask, it's Zorro
Mom:  Ok, I'll try my best...

Popsicle

One of the Sunday morning, I prepared tuna egg mayo tortilla for breakfast, and it's been a year I do not make any fresh juices for them.  It's green apples, carrot, lemon and beet root juice, the kids did not like it at all, so I turned it to popsicle, guess what, they finished all...

Drum Set

Ian has started his drum lesson since March and he has putting effort on the lesson, I'm happy to hear him showing serious attitude on the lesson.  The teacher also advised us to buy a drum set for him otherwise he could not practice at home and could not improve.  We all know, "Practice makes Perfect".  Hubby searching around for a second hand drum set, but the price is not cheap.  Finally, a friend recommended a reasonable price and advised that he can use it up to 5 years.

We brought him to do a viewing and testing.

15 July 2014

Hubby wanted to give him a surprise, so we asked them to deliver and fix the drum set during his camp.

28 July 2014

He really got surprised and very happy...

Jamming with daddy...
Now he always invites us to worship and pray together, Praise the Lord!

Book Fair 2014

The popular book fair is here again, it's a good opportunity to grab some cheap stationeries.  
I told the kids not to buy any books, but when we arrived, Ian asked "Can I buy a book?" and I ended up answer "yes".  Ian bought 2 books and Ryan chosen his birthday gift.

There's no extra school holidays for both of them, so we went after school...

During this Raya festive we did not go anywhere, just did a simple steamboat for family bonding time.  I love steamboat and they do...

VBS 2014

Vacation Bible School (VBS) is a specialized form of religious education which focuses on children, it takes place once a year and usually it will take 2 - 3 days vary from the age of the children.  I think it is the happiest place to be for children ages 5 years to 12 years old.

Each VBS program follows a unique theme, it's including games, crafts, bible lessons/stories, and other activities...

This year theme was "Space Quest", and only for children age 8-12 years old

SUPA Camp 2014

Ian attended the camp and he has a great time, when he just arrived I asked him "did you miss me?", the answer was "I want to go again next year", what a success of you...

[the camp is called SUPA Camp organised by Scripture Union cater for primary-age 8-12 years old children.  The camp include programmes, syllabus, games, art & crafts and activities... to reach children with God's Word...]

Playtime_Junior Scrabble

Junior scrabble, it has been sitting for 2 years on the shelf, it's a birthday present from Uncle Kelvin & Aunty Debbie.  When he was 7 he has no patience at all and could not spell the word.  Suddenly, Ian brought it out and played, he got so involved in the game.  I'm happy to see him thinking about how the words were spelt.  Maybe it's too easy for his age and I'm thinking to buy a boggle for him.

21 July 2014

Both of them playing different games during playtime, Ryan has chosen giant alphabet puzzle.

Sport Carnival 2014

The home school participated in Sport Carnival organised annually by Chempaka Assembly of God held in the Matsushita Sports Center from 7:30 am to 5pm.  

There're no athletics sports this year due to renovation of the stadium.  Nevertheless, Ian was also disappointed by teacher Peter that he won't be participated in the football match.  The reason given was not enough participants for the group age below 17 years old.  I was unhappy too, if this's the case, he did not need to practice from Jan to June.  It's very unorganised.
