x'mas, x'mas time is here... time for joy & time for cheers!

my absolute favourite time of the year came and went... with loads of fun & laughter! though i was utterly broke until baby got his year-end bonus and handed me my yearly "bonus" fat angbao for being his darling wife (LOL!).. woohoo!! not forgetting we hit the malls right away after parking the money in a secret account to ensure we keep to the "out of sight, out of mind" theory.. la la la..

pre-christmas treats... missy & her blower..

oooooo.. me snucking a kiss with the handsome boy.. i love it when u try to kiss him and he just opens his mouth and goes blur.. hahaha!
the Christmas day party @ 美姨's 'penthouse'! hahaha..
everyone going a little gaga with missy taking centrestage with her songs & dances..

"jingle bells jingle bells jingle all the way.........................."

see the contrasting 3 groups of pple? the youngsters @ the balcony with their newest version of the monopoly, the bored ones in front of the TV and the oldies (oops!) @ the dining table chit-chatting away..

our x'mas spread! specially sponsored by 珮姨，美姨，舅母 & myself.. ^_^

and the delicious egg mayo sandwiches lovingly made by wanqiu & peiyan!

our gift exchange time!!



all of us got at least one pressie each cos we have picked each other's name like 2 weeks prior to the party.. though we had surprises too! love came in the form of our very own Santarina, 珮姨 who burnt a big hole in her pocket buying us girls (yes, me included), pretty bags and something else for each & every1 of us! woohoo!!!
missy happily tearing up the wrappers! she's got the most and she's super duper happy..
lil ayden boyboy having loads of fun at his 1st ever party too!
our lovely pressies!


oooooooo.. i can't miss this out.. ha! my handmade-with-love pressie for my big baby.. materials provided by huijuan, lotsa ideas input from the ever-creative kelly... and.. ta-da! i'm soooo proud of myself! completed in less than 3hrs.. during office hours.. hiaks hiaks... more pressies for the kiddos!! muacks muacks to 珮姨& lilian姐姐 for the beautiful but expensive loot from gymboree US.. aww....

last but not least, well-picked and foreseen to be well-utilised pressies from eileen for the 2 of them! they love it!! (",)
a little on the pre-x'mas party @ the office..

LOL
