(Almost) Ready For Christmas!!

Christmas decorations are up. Presents for our loved ones have been bought. Handmade cards have been sent …(yeah took so much of my time doing them but enjoyed it so much, maybe they don´t look amazing or so great like the one in the shops but I feel its rewarding; I feel the joy which cannot be purchased). Receiving handmade Christmas cards is special isn´t it? To friends that I cannot reach via Christmas cards this year, please don´t be kumaus, I am really lack of time. I will try next year kio. Christmas songs are playing nonstop now. Christmas cookies have been baked (Peanut cookies tapi sikit saja...maybe I will try to bake Pineapple tart or Kueh Makmur kalau rajin...) Christmas menu has been set.. White Christmas kah tida?? I don´t think so... weather man says next week will be just grey and temperature will be mild. But that´s okay for me...at least the road will not be slippery as we will be on the road during the season to visit hubby´s relatives. Christmas season, no matter how stressful, is always full of joy, especially if you have little kids at home!, we’re getting a real tree this on Friday and cannot wait to decorate it with my boys.. they also enjoying helping mama rolling dough making Christmas cookies..this adds more special feelings and put us more into Christmas mood. I am so ready for Christmas with my little family in Germany but actually started missing my family back home as Christmas is approaching, I am sure Christmas back home is much much merrier sebab ada family gathering with lots of yummy food. Aduii sedihnya aku cannot be there to join them...but there is not much to be done about it, just have to cope being separated with mama, siblings and anak anak buah yang tercinta…sob! sob! ...nasip ada telephone ...yang jauh jadi dekat.

Our simple tree is now standing and decorated...

To those who celebrate Christmas wherever you are...in Malaysia, in Europe, US, Australia or any other parts of the Globe...bah good luck with your preparation!.

    We're almost done too with our christmas preparations Luth. I'm not much of a "cook" but will definitely assist David in whatever he wants to cook. A little bit of Asian & American food perhaps. He's gonna bake some cookies and cake too he said. Hmmmm... macamana mau turun berat badan ni...hehe. Anyways, glad you're having fun time with your boys doing christmas stuff. I love your decos... cantik :)

    Opps lupa pulak. Kyle is recovering. Tomorrow we have to go back to the hospital for check up (kontrol) and we´ll see what the doctor will say. He has to skip kindy until next year Nina..its look like he is still quite sensitive to infection. Susah hati saya.

    I wish Kyle best of health in the coming year and years to come, Luth. I can understand how a mother feels when her child is not doing well. God's willing, Kyle will be A-OK boy throughout his life :))
