09.09.09

09.09.09 was my husband's 40th birthday, attempted to be Rachel Ray - everything done in 30 mins (actually, I took 3 days).....made a cake and agar and get a party going at Aloha Changi for family and friends....

Looks vaguely like a sand castle? nah...it's a stadium!!!!


Jazzing it up to look more like a stadium of people watching football???
Druuummmmmm rooooolllll....tada!

Yeh yeh! SPURS!! My attempt at icing a cock, didn't seem to fly.....

The cake was the kids' contribution and tribute to papa's favourite team!
Not able to find a rooster pan, i decided to go for a really girly pan....and tada.....a rainbow hued chrysanthemum


Kids had tonnes of fun at Chalet G. There was a nice big field in front. They found coconuts and pretended to be marooned on a lost island, with only coconuts to survive on. The girls were more dainty and did sand art (as opposed to playing with real sand!). At night, other than being stung by mozzies, the kids snapped light sticks and looked for treasure in the dark.
Birthday Boy was rather pleased (I think?) to have a bash where he actually receives real presents (as vs useful presents only from the wife).
