"Pressie" Challenge #15

To celebrate the last day of 2008, I decided to take part in the Scrappin Kids December Challenge #15, all about pressie, at the very last minute. Well, thought of it quite a while ago but only managed to pull out some mojos at the last minute.

Here's my takes.
Fun at Pinks & Chocs Crop

I had a blast at the P&C crop last Monday. The ladies were super-cool and glad to meet them all.

We were taught by Jazz how to make a cute box out of PPs and cardstock and we had a little game of scrapping after refreshments was served. I was mojoless at first, maybe because people watching me.

These are the cute little boxes we did and when we're done we swap the boxes using the Jazz's manual random selector ((if i'm not mistaken *keke*))
(((Note: Some pics taken from here)))

and this is the one I made.. told you I was mojoless!!! ((ooohhhh.. look at the clarity of this pic, I sooo wanna get an SLR for me next year!! better be nice to DH ;p ))and after the swap.... I got the winning box made by Nadiah... wuhuuu!!!

Too bad we didn't take group photo coz we were all running late that day ((and someone's transport was already outside waiting... haha *winks*)) . Nonetheless, I had a great time there and looking forward to go to the next one. Oh oh, and the food was yumzzzzzzzz.......

This is one of the cupcakes that I ate first.... Cool huh?!!

Didn't missed the shopping too!! I bgt some stuff before leaving including this pretty album I booked thru Dina and Renee few weeks ago :)

Selamat Menyambut Tahun Baru Hijriah & Happy New Year 2009

Busy weekend
*edited*

Although the long awaited 'loooong weekend' is coming but it's going to be a tiring one for me. This Sunday is one of our close relative's wedding day soooo it's the week full of wedding events.. PLUSSSSSSS... my kids' back-to-school preparation (this is the busiest event of all!!).

My activities yesterday was:

1. Had breakfast at CA Mohd gadong (Adam burped loudly in the restaurant!! How rude??!! I saw Poinz there with the hubby *wink* She smiled at me when Adam burped!! hehe she don't know it's me i guess)

2. we went shopping at The Mall for groceries and school uniforms (although I skipped this one coz inda sanggup! well you know, it's bonus season so you can imagine how the shop was full of people so i just did the groceries shopping)

3. had lunch at CheezBox ((too bad I didn't took pics there coz it was my kids' 1st time there and they liked it and sooooo wanna go there again))

4. went to MBE to get DD's school books and tried our luck in the lucky draw contest ((wah, even bookstores now have lucky draws... who knows I'll win the Acer aspire XD). Met an ol fren from school, Ismawati Ma'aruf, at the bookstore. cool!!!

5. went home tired, slept for one hour

6. went to attend Majlis Berbedak function((renee was there :p)

Phewhhhhh!! That was a whole lot of activities in a day! Here's a random picture of Adam i took at the function playing with my phone. He can't find his gameboy (boy am i not surprised!) and he must have something that he could play with otherwise he'll go wandering around.

Here's a short video of Syifaa trying out the 'poco-poco' dance at the wedding. Hehe her first time doing the poco-poco and been practicing it ever since.. hehe cute!!


Thanks for dropping by!!

Whilst in Spore we managed to do a little shopping at Wheelock place and Isetan.

uwaaaaaaa..... :'(

I know i have expressed my frustration at FB but I just can't help letting it out everywhere. Yes! We can't go to Bangkok because the airport was paralyzed by PAD protestors since Tuesday night. Protesters have forced Thai police to abandon a checkpoint as the authorities try to end a blockade of Bangkok's airports that has lasted several days. This trip has been plannced months ago and we were suppose to go last Thursday!!! And yeah, we're still here in Brunei with no activities. ((sigh)) oh well, what to do! We were given two choices, either to reschedule or reroute. We opt for reschedule. Perhaps we'll go there next year!

No good PAD protestors!!!

HSM3 enthusiasts!!!!

[First movie outing without ayah & ibu]

My lovely girls, you were oh so happy when I told you that we're going to bring you to the movies to watch HSM3. The minute you hear the news I saw sparkles in both your eyes, like a dream come true. So we take you to the Mall and left you girls there to watch the movie, and you were enjoying that night as 'almost' grown ups on your own for an hour and a half. When the movie ended, you two were all smiles when you came out of the theater. A big grin on your cute faces. And you were talking about the movie all the way home and how you loved it. Here's a picture of you girls posing beside the HSM3 posters. May you remember this night forever.

xoxo, ibu

Mini Pop-Up Album

Can't wait for next week! As I will be going for a long vacation (finally!!). It will be a solid 2 weeks (yeah baby!!!) I NEED the break.... i haven't been on leave for quite some time (4 mths.. heee..) I'll provide updates on the break after the break (do i make sense??!! ;) )

Anyways, been always wanting to try doing a mini pop-up album. I've asked around and finally got the tutorial from her and her. So I did one on DS' birthday pictures and been working on it for the last few days. It was a very interesting experience and i enjoyed doing it.

Here's my take!


The assembled book....

And... the finished product!!!
Front view

back view
side view.. don't mind the messy background :)
inside...
open up!!
voila...!!!!
pix of T's pressie to adam (the mini pool table... precious!) and the Ben10 collection from ibu (the 'heatblast'), kaka syifaa (the 'upgrade') and kaka irah (the 'stinkfly')... i've memorized the names of the characters now since i've been hearing and seeing it all around me everyday... Ben10 die hard fan!!!
On a separate note, remember this LO i created just before raya? I've framed it and hang it at a little corner at our house for a remembrance of my late mom...
