Extremely fun, undoubtedly noisy and indescribably tiring. Here’s what happened today at my small little house. Total guests = 20. Big and small, young and old, all squeezed into my humble home of 92sq metre space.

Balloons are MUST HAVE!

This is how you entertain kids: Throw them into a room full of toys. Forget about the mess. The kids will do the rest; which is messing up even more! *laugh* Make sure your laptop is switched on too, in case someone like Keatkeat (top right) wants to surf the net.

When they are sick of the toys, play Monopoly! The hi-tech one, which uses credit cards instead of cash notes. This prevent ‘money’ from flying away! You know how kids are…their small hands can’t hold on to that stack for long. Or you may end up with soggy notes….Eeewww…

While kids play, adults were cooking away……There should be many more faces…if not this feast couldn’t be served, but they were camera-shy. So it just me and my favourite aunt, the one who took care of me since I was born.

2 Regular Canadian Pizzas – Hawaiian Classic and Singapura Special AND my mother-in-law’s specialty – CURRY (big pot) couldn’t squeeze into the photo. But they definitely were very popular throughout the night.

What’s my reward at the end of the day? An aching back, an injured ankle, a cut on my right hand, stinky hair and lots of cleaning to do…..Will I do this again? 100% YES! ‘Cos my biggest reward was : I made my child SMILE! Even though just before he sleep, he started to have fever….38.1 degrees celsius!

What a lousy ending…..sigh
