Monday Memes – School Holidays Edition
A few weeks ago the boys rented bicycles at East Coast Park at the beach. It has been a while since we rented bikes for them as they do have their own bikes. They had a blast riding with Daddy as the weather has been bad and it was really by chance that the weather was good that weekend.
While the boys were off riding the girl and me had our still moments and we also saw some fantastic sandcastle displays. The kids are asking to go to the beach again this week.I’m still thinking what other family activities we can do together which can incorporate all the kids. It’s still quite difficult as Tiger girl is still very young and there is an age gap between her and her brothers.
This weekend we didn’t get to go to the beach as it was raining very heavily on both Saturday and Sunday. The kids went bowling, to the game arcade had some indoor fun with the WII instead. You should see the three of them so happy behind the steering wheel at the arcade. It’s quite apparent that kids and wheels have a real affinity. Even tiger girl had her go turning and twisting the wheel while her brothers played.
How was your weekend?
This week theme is on a favourite female singer. I’m featuring BOA a Korean singer who sings in Korean, Japanese and English. She’s really pretty and dances well too.
1. What are your plans for St. Patrick’s Day?
No plans as we don’t celebrate St Patrick’s Day. It will be a semi normal day for us as the kids are no term break vacations.
2. What is your favorite room in your house?
My bedroom.
3. What ‘gadget’ do you have that you can’t live without?
It would be my mobile phone.
4. What will your first thought be when you learn that you won a lottery?
I would certainly be overjoyed. My first thought would be that we will finally have enough cash to pay off all our loans and be debt free.
5. Other than Acting Balanced and your own, what is your favorite blog to read?
There are many which I read- MamaKat’s , Buckeroomama and KludgyMom are some I read very often.

I enjoy the same blogs! Mama Kat is hilarious and Buckeroo Mama is such a talented photographer.
Do you find that today’s artists are all triple threats? They’re so multi-talented, sing and dance and now this one speaks three languages. That just takes it to a whole other level! Thanks for sharing this!

Hi Dominique. I think I’ve already been following you, but I’m not 100% sure now that they have taken GFC from a lot of people. I had already liked your FB page, but I am now following via Linky Follower, Twitter, Pinterest and Bloglovin. I found you through Mingle Monday and if you aren’t following already, I’d love for you stop by and follow back. I’m still using GFC, so if you can follow there, that would be awesome.
Anyway, awesome post and my name is Sarah btw.
Thanks:)

Aww, thanks so much for the shout-out! 🙂
Beach? Aargh! That’s such a distant thought for us right now. The heater’s still on –not just at night, but during the day, too!

@Buckeroomama,
I’m surprised that it’s so cold in HK at the moment…the weather seems to be wonky all across the world this year. Hope that the warm comes for you soon.

You have such a beautiful family! The bike riding looks like fun! 🙂
Love your song choice today, too! 🙂
March 12, 2012 @ 8:47 pm
That looks like a great way to spend an afternoon…

Very nice family! I’d love to go bike riding with the fam sometime once the weather gets better! Thanks for hooking up this week!

When the kids were small, we’d go the Smoky’s to ride our bikes around the Cades Cove loop road on Saturday mornings. That was really fun and the scenery is beautiful!
This little Korean gal has a great voice. The music is definitely is MMMM quality stuff! Thanks for sharing it with us!

What a lovely thing to be able to do – bike on the beach!
We had a birthday party to attend with the kids this weekend and then stayed at my parents’ for the night.
I tried to go to your BF community, but was unable to see the entire post – I think your sidebar was covering it. It might just be me, but you might want to see if others can see it.

Thanks for visiting.. the post in the BF community is showing fine on my screen.. not sure why you were not able to see it.
I’ve attached the community page to a separate page in the blog.

Glad you had a great weekend! Mine was stressful and shouldn’t be.
I agree with you about kids and wheels. Definitely something there that span the sexes.
Love your music choice!

Oh I love biking with my kids. If I could find a way to bike with my kids while reading to them I would never do anything else. Looks like such a fun day!
When is the school year in Sinagapore? In Japan it is April to March, so this is the last week of classes before spring break.
