Tanglin Mall
We just went Tanglin mall to look for some fabrics, Lina heard from a friend that they have nice and colourful design over there. The Christmas decoration is already up and shops are starting to sell bells, wines, log cakes and many many more of the Christmas accessories and gifts...
Reindeer form a straight line greeting us at the very first shop we see.
Looking at the Christmas tree decoration... I am thinking we shall have one our home one day. 
The beeline of CD stack neatly on the rack seems to amused little Gracia for a moment.
These are the fabric we came here for. But don't think we are buying anything here "Tangling Mall"... It's for the rich... you know what i am talking about don't you. Moreover, Lina didn't found anything she really like. She always said she can't find really nice design locally here and have to go online and get them from oversea supplier....(shall we start a biz importing fabric?)

Pasir Ris Farm
Now that we have found out this place at Pasir Ris Farm 1, just 10min drive from our house. We don't have to go else where for little Gracia to feed those 'hungry fishes'. I wonder if the owner feed them too because they really seems desperate when ever they see someone near, they(the fishes)will swim to you, open their mouth and they seems to be shouting “给我一点吃的吧!”（Give me some food!)
For some reason, Gracia seems to assiociate 'fish' with 'eat'. Maybe because we have been bringing her to feed fish since she was young and now when ever she see fish, she will eventually say eat. lol... 
She really enjoyed the swing pretty much... when ever i slower down, she'll fussed and ask me to do it faster.

The more the merrier
Last sunday, we had a wonderful and friutful family day out. Instead of only the usual 3 of us, this time round we have with us my mother, brother, plus my niece and nephew. 
Thats why i say, the more the merrier. It would be even better if my sister, brother-in-law and both their boys were together with us. My mother would definitely love to see that happen. Nows a day, it's hard to arrange family outing that include everyone in the house probably due to commitments like school, work, and extended family gathering etc. Anyway, credit should be given to my sister for letting us have the opportunity to get together and have fun as a family because of her free tickets to Down Town East Theme Park(DTETP). Though the whether is extremely hot, we had our fun. And i had taken over 300 plus pictures but i am not going to post every single one up, i will reduce to fustrating tears if i do that, 300 plus of photos loading time will definitely dampen my spirit. Moreover, not all of the photo are worth posting up. Let me just choose some that speak for itself the joy, the fun and most importantly the heart warming moment we had spent our time together, esp with our mother.

Image left:Poor Lina and Gracia can only stand aside and watched, you won't see me because i am always the camera man:)
Image left:It our turn to have fun, but with Gracia with us, we can only ride those that are safe for children >
Image above:Riding on the toto train, by right, they can only allow two pax per cabin. But i negotiated with the guy ( a student on holiday i guess ) manning the train telling him we are a family and we must sit together. Thanks for closing one eye boy, now you're the man...
Image above: Pls click to enlagre image if you can't read what ah ma thinking.
Image above: Ah ma getting excited for a ferry wheel ride.

We continue to had a few more rides on the other games and machines including a mini daytona racing cart for me. After that, we thought of having lunch outside and return later for more rides we havev't touch on.
Above image: Ah ma relating the rides with veness...
After lunch, instead of returning back to the theme park. We changed our mind and decied to ride bicycle at Pasir Ris Park behind.
Image above: Reaching a bridge at the park, my brother say it's a nice view and help us to take a family picture.
We then ride all the way to the end where there is a big area of play ground we used to bring Gracia come.
Image above: We took turns to push one another esp for ah ma.
Image above: My brother and Nic had a fall when try to stand on this spinner. I used to had my fall on it too when i first try it, lol... Standing beside: Veness laughing at her two clumsy family man.
Image left: Ah ma getting ready for a slide of her life with Gracia sitting on her laps.
We stayed there for about an hour continue exploring more swings and slides before riding our bicycle again.
Image above: Taken when i saw some ray flashing out from the dark cloud.
After realising it is going to rain soon. We had a few more pictures taken near the shore before we call it a day.
This was really a fruitful day for all of us esp my mother i guess. Hopefully one day, we can have my sister and her family include for a bigger family outing.

Blowing Dandelions
There is a mini garden Gracia and I enjoy every morning on the weekends. She loves to step on the sand while I love to look out for small purple butterflies fluttering around beautifully. We both love to blow at dandelions. Gracia never fails to get excited blowing them. It's just such a lovely sight to behold.
I am happy Gracia prefers the garden to the playground whenever we go downstairs. It means I can relax instead of playing with her at the playground.haha! I used to love playing at the playground but I will try my best to shun them now when possible because it's just so tiring to play with the kids! Lazy mum. Time to do something about my stamina. Hee.I am looking forward to this coming weekend again so we can spend some really nice time in front of purple butterflies and lovely white dandelions. Daddy.... just in case you're wondering what the both of us are up to every weekend morning while you're still sleeping, we are quietly enjoying the beauty of nature and happily stepping on each other's shadows. :)

Animal Farm @ Jalan Kayu
Just another typical Sunday and as usual we were out to have some activities. Today we went to the animal farm at my wife's childhood place, Jalan Kayu. When we reached the gate, the place seems quite and we can't see any animal around. Gracia had fell asleep during the journey and we do not want to wake her up just to see some dogs. So I went down myself and explore if there's more animals worthwhile to disturb and wake her up. Inside, I saw parrots, goat, rabbits, chickens, ducks a few other species of animals I am not sure of the name and a lizard.
Although they are just farm animals, we think it's good enough for Gracia, further more, they're selling fresh carrots, breads and fish ingredients for ppl to feed the animals and get up close and personal with them.
It stated very clearly there's no outside food if you want to feed the animal. I bought a mixture of food for Gracia to feed the rabbit, fish and goat.
Gracia and Lina happily feeding three hungry rabbits.
We proceed to the pond to feed the fish. While we were feeding the fish, there were a bunch of ducks on the other side of the pond, knowing that we are here to feed, quickly run towards us and making lots of sound ... quark quark quark... quark quark quark.... and Gracia was really terrify by their enthusiasm.
Suddenly, the pond was filled with ducks, gung ho ducks, many of them. One of them even poked on Lina toes.. Lol... Mummy has to carried Gracia away from them....
After encountering those zealous ducks, we moved to feed the only goat there, which seems lonely. Like usual, our timid little Gracia dare not approach her, standing and holding on to mummy's side as a shield in case the goat dash at her... Lol
We continued to feed more fish on the other pound, before proceeding to the chicken cage.
Further in after the chicken cage, there's a gate leading to puppies where we had bought our Shine Shine there. But it's locked, so we took an U-turned and take a break on the bench outside the grooming shop.
It was still early and we decide to let Gracia enjoy a final round of feeding before we end our excursion.
And don't forget to wash your hand before leaving.
