SEA Games Carnival

The only photo with all of us together.

I seriously thought that going to the carnival on a weekday would be less crowded but the queues to all the stations were still at least an hour long!!! *faintz* Regardless, we adults valiantly persisted in helping the kids to queue up for the activities they were interested in. Thank God Joshua could take leave and come with us so we could split up the work: one to stand in line, while other entertain the kids. Despite that, the kids still spent 80% of their time simply waiting around.

There was even some passing rain which forced the kids to take cover in the mall with Joshua while I braved the bad weather to continue standing in the queue for an hour so that the kids could have their turn the moment they reopened the station. My super bear bear also spent most of the time carrying Joram in the sling so that our littlest one would not fuss. Poor dear...

I can only pray that the children can appreciate our sacrifice in order for them to have as much fun as possible.

Flower power!

At first, only the older
ones wanted to try this...

... But Jaide decided last minute to join in.

They looked like hamsters
in a ball! Haha...

A pity one must be
at least 18 to ride this.

The older two completed
their cards and
got the prize! Yay!
