My cREaTe Canvas



Samantha made this for me. Another arty canvas. I love it! Like she said,"its all the techniques she knows in it!" Samantha signed on it too.. hehehe.. She is the only person whom I know don't like getting roses because she just cannot bear to see it die. "It's said to see them die." Immediately, when I saw the canvas, I noticed the roses picture on it.

Thanks Samantha, its really lovely..

Penang

The long awaited break had finally arrived.

When we arrived, the best view from our room.. (of the pool, that is)


The next morning,
And by night..
The kids had a blast in the newly opened Adventure Zone..
Then there was the beach (ofcourse)..

I took the chance to take loads and loads of pictures..i think i have some pretty good shots. Hooray, time for scrapping!! Having new pictures to scrap is such an inspiration for me.

Our brave little girl voluntered to go on the jetski with dada.. apparently she told dada to go faster..

and then there was the Spice Garden, which the girls came to call it 'the jungle', only because we had to do abit of walking.. i recommend to go there, very relaxing, very refreshing..with the big trees and al' and ofcourse the spices to look at..

What a relaxing weekend it has been.
5 sleeps and it was time for us to head back to KL.

Bubba Gump







Today hubby & I brought Ariff out for lunch, just us, 3.

Ariff's thinking, "Why am I here?". "I want to go home, I want tutu (a.k.a susu)".

Happy Mama's Day ~ Dira says..

Kakak made this for me.. (made out of cotton balls and glitter glue..) never ever thought they'll ever work together! but hey, it looks great!
this tulip was made by dira.. it came in this envelope all ripped!! absolutely priceless..
Bouquet for Mother's Day was there on the Dining table just for me.. 2 bouquets that is.. truly appreciate it..

To share the beautiful text messages I've received today:

A woman has strengths that amaze men. She can handle trouble and carry heavy burdens. She holds happiness, love and opinions. She smiles when she feels like screaming. She sings when she feels like crying, cries when she's happy and laughs when she's afraid. Her love is unconditional! There's only one thing wrong with her, she sometimes forgets what she is worth..

A mum is a rose whose petals are soft,
a mum is a lily whose stem is tall & strong;
a mum is a person who is never wrong; and
a mum is a person you should love forever..
Trust her,
believe her; and
never doubt her..

Dear Allah, The Almighty, The one that Everknows & Understands. The one that Everloving & Caring, please touch the people I care for. Keep them safe, remind them of your great love & bless them. Especially the one reading this!

Its normal when you're in your 20's, you'll look very 'Mengancam'..
When you're in your 30's, you begin to behave 'Bermacam-macam'..
When you turn 40's to 50's, you'll feel 'Terancam'..
and sadly, when you reach above 60's orang langsung tak boleh 'CAM!!
Happy Mother's Day!

Happy mama day, big mama!!

Thank you for all the beautiful messages, Ladies.. Happy Mother's Day..

Each One Album..









This album I made for Gayn & I. We have lots to share, and lots more to remember. From our home in Brunei and Perth and then to Malaysia. The things we do together (the funny things we do together, hehehe), the funny things we say together (or sing together). This album is an album I want to show to my 2 daughters, how we both were and how they could be together (their endless catfights). I'll have to make another album for my mum and her sis too! 3 generations with 2 girls in the family! That's something to talk about!! Catfights/fun/play/share TOGETHER.
