X'mas 2010

The babes had an early Christmas party on 11 Dec 2010 which was planned way in advance. Planning started way back in end Oct to identify a date since everybody would be really busy over the festive period and the Chiams will be flying to the states on Christmas day so it was crucial to book everyone ahead.

Each family had to be present with 3 gifts for the mummy, daddy and child. It was a potluck party and I had to volunteer the drinks aspect since I will be busy and away for more than a week so it will be a safe choice, do not wish to fail fulfilling. Mind you, the drinks are purchased much much was in advance, like early Nov for fear that the busy schedule will result in procrastination.

Food was great with pasta, nachos with various dips, cheese metlz, salad, some tasty blueberry dessert, and a beautifully roasted turkey thanks to ophe.
After the yummilicious spread of food, we played a few games. Rolling the dices to get a double and tearing off newpaper wrapped present with a pair of mittens (yeah, I am the winner!), pictionary (all clues related to christmas carols) and next the gift exchange. Supposedly we are to snatch each other presents to our preferences, however we are so nice to each other and satisfied with the presents that all else are not neccesary.
Our second christmas party together and definitely hope for many more to come though high possibility 2011 party might have to give it a miss since the Chiams and Angs will be abroad. Nontheless all the best wishes to everyone and hope that 2011 will be a beautiful year for the families.
