the spirit of giving

i love christmas and i think everyone else does too. apart from getting public holidays, we get gifts!! i know christmas should be the spirit of giving and sadly i didn't do much of that this year but i did receive a lot from the people i work it... and it is always a nice surprise when you just receive a card, a basket of gingerbread men and just some bottles of champagne/alcohol. these are just some of the gifts i got this year. i hope everyone got what they wanted this christmas... happy holidays!

an aussie father's day

father's day in malaysia and in australia have different dates. so confusing. in malaysia, it's the 3rd sunday of june and here it's the first sunday of september. thank goodness it's the same for mother's day! we hardly celebrate these days since we're all so far away.we do of course organise flowers and the phone call/SMS but that's about it.

this time my father in law got lucky. my in laws are in town to check out our new place and of course catch up with the kids and since yesterday was father's day in australia, we had a lil celebration in our own way. ordered in thai food and popped open a bottle of champagne. :)





we finally put the "wicked" glass to good use. happy father's day!

*edit*

if you noticed we are using wine glasses and not champagne glasses :( now we realise what we are missing at home *hint*hint*
