Highlights of October 2015

Tiger girl with her Ice-cream Waffle Treat
Ice cream treats were a plenty last month. October seemed like the “ice- cream treat” month for the kids and me as we went out for a couple of ice-cream treats 🙂

Doggie boy and me
The kids had their one to one Ice-cream treats and enjoyed themselves tremendously.

Tiger girl at her favourite ice-cream place
In fact Tiger girl went on her 2nd Ice-cream treat last week as the boys were away on a playdate.

Quotation on Fate
October was a month of reflecting for me . I had to make some important decisions and was pondering on the meaning of FATE.
Sometimes we expect results and get disappointed when they are not to our expectations. On certain occasions obstacles are placed in our path and it maybe difficult to get around or remove them.

The model in the makeup class
In my bid in continuous learning I attended a Creative Makeup Class and learned how to make fun designs on the face for a costume party. It was interesting to learn that different makeup artists have different styles and preferences.
I’m developing my own makeup style while experimenting with different looks to see what suits me the best.

Our family of 5
October was a month where we manage to bond as a family. R was down for a short vacation and the kids and I had a fun time at the park with him.

Out and about in the park
Even though it was extremely hot in the mid day sun we had lots of fun as the park wasn’t crowded . We were there on a weekday so had the liberty to go all the playground equipment countless times.

Yaki Udon for Dinner
The kids and I spend quite a bit eating out in restaurants and having treats. Now that it’s November I have to try extra hard to get back on my diet so that I’ll be able to reach my ideal weight/size.

Dominique, I can eat ice cream 365 days of the year, if I’d let myself. I just love it! Now, you got me wanting a bowl of that creamy goodness! Thanks for dropping by & joining my #WW linky party. Have a wonderful Wednesday!

Looks like some yummy ice cream treats! We slow down on ice cream here as the weather gets colder, but we do enjoy quite a few smoothies. I often put a single scoop of ice cream in just for fun. 🙂
Would love to take a make up class – that would be so much fun.

My family was able to have a few days stay at my father’s house last month. It was a relaxing time and at the same time, I really like being with my dad for some time.

My October passed just like that. It was a busy month for me both at work, family and small business. We had so much blessings for this month as well. Praying for a more relaxing November but I think the month will be busier as December is coming so soon.

You have a wonderful October especially bonding with your family 🙂
