Girls' night out

I've finally been to an all girls night out for the first time in a long time!

I guess one of the upsides of Chris being away is that now I try harder to socialize and spend time with friends.

Friday night out was a spur of the moment thing with 3 girlfriends. Being typical moms we decided to go out after the kids were down for the night. We booked a table at Kilo, one of the 'fashionable' plates kind of place for dinner and drinks.

Of course we had to take a group shot at the start, then we had our drinks and food. Surprisingly we didn't wind up drunk and we did havedessert before we left. The only downside to the place was that it wasn't air conditioned! Wasn't nice to start sweating just 15 minutes into a meal.

Saturday was a public holiday here because it was the National Day. Hence a day off! No work, no schedules.. Elizabeth and Vicky came over bright and early, Geok was out cycling and Munhon was at work. Good thing I did pancakes for breakfast so there was plenty extra. The kids headed out to the Montebleu pool after breakfast and played with a neighbour's kid the entire morning.

We were very lucky to get invited to a neighbour's place for wine and cheese after dinner and we saw the National Day fireworks very clearly from her apartment.

Sunday was girls day out! I took Madison and Annika shopping at Takashimaya and we had lunch at Coffee Bean bistro after wards! Was a success and I'm thrilled that I can finally do this with the girls! They are finally old enough to go out and eat with decorum! Sunday evening was tennis for Madison and pool time for the younger 2. We finished off with dinner and a free kids' magician show at the club. All in... a great day in my books! I cannot believe the weekend is over and a new week is about to begin AGAIN.
