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 🙂

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

 

How was October for you?

Last week during the 4 days of PSLE marking I took the opportunity to bring the kids to the park for some fun. R was in town to we had a great time bonding as a family.

The last time we were  at Pasir Ris park was back in Feb when R was down for a short break in August.

It was indeed fun for all as the park wasn’t crowded as it was a weekday.  We could spend as much time as we wanted on the different playground equipment  and play to our heart’s content.

Besides  having fun at the playground we rented bikes so that everyone could get a good workout while being at the park. Tiger girl doesn’t ride the bicycle very often and due to the haze we have had lesser opportunities to spend time outdoors. I’m hopeful that in the next few years she be able to ride a bicycle without training wheels attached.

It’s very rare for us to be able to do activities as a family now that R is working overseas.  I took the opportunity to catch up with him and spend some couple time with him too.

After spending the whole day with the kids it was our time together with a date night and catch up with some of our friends.

Looking forward to the next time that we can spend time together as a family again.
