Holidays Split Parties Just 4 days before MsC's birthday party, Singapore heightened Covid restrictions to limit social gatherings to 5 people.
Holidays Happy Mother's Day Everyone took me out for tacos on Mother's Day. Tacos may not sound like the most luxurious thing to do, but it is pretty fancy in Singapore.
Holidays Easter Bunny I was really homesick approaching Easter, but we still had a nice Easter Sunday.
Holidays River Hongbao We got the prized tickets for River Hongbao at Garden's by the Bay. Most Lunar New Year activities were cancelled due to Covid, but this strictly controlled one was put on.
Holidays Birthday Cake We celebrated Jonathan's birthday by having "afternoon tea" at Prive - the marina restaurant near our home. No one drank tea.
Homeschooling CNY in the Flower Dome As part of our Lunar New Year learning, the girls did a Scavenger Hunt in the Flower Dome at Garden's by the Bay.
Holidays Celebrating Year of the Ox It's the second day of Chinese New Year and things are pretty quiet in Singapore considering it is the biggest holiday of the year.
Holidays Happy Lunar New Year The girls wore red to bed so that the monster Nain would be afraid of them and not eat them if he came, because we were not going to stay up all night to scare him away.
Holidays Christmas Eve 2020 After the kids were all snug in their beds and finally asleep on Christmas Eve, I discovered Jonathan snoring away.
Holidays Christmas Festivities Some of the other Christmas festivities we got up to before Christmas, included:
Holidays Marina Bay Sands Shopping I was on a mission for an elusive Christmas gift, so I though I would try the Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands.
Holidays Toddler Christmas Shopping In the last days before Christmas I took MsI shopping for her sisters' presents.
Holidays Vivo's Christmas Decor The malls are very festive. The decore we've seen in Vivocity Mall is themed around the Nutcracker.
Holidays Secret Santa Meetings Santa can't be found in the mall this year, but a very special friend of ours arranged some private, socially distanced meetings with Santa.
Holidays Christmas Decorations We decorated early this year, right at after we took down the Deepavali decorations in mid November. We let the kids decorate the tree any which way they wanted.
Universal Studios Last Universal Visit Us girls did get to see the Christmas displays before our Universal Studios passes expired. We just didn't realize it was going to be our last visit for a long time.
Holidays Happy Halloween Last year we did some early trick or treating around the condo, but this year we stayed home.
Holidays Universal Trick or Treat MsC and I ran off to Universal Studios for some roller coaster riding one afternoon in October.
