Party: Paris in Turqoise & Pink

So the eldest turned 12 and wanted a Paris-themed tea party.

As part of the decor, decided to make Eiffel tower standees for the table. Have never tried something like this before, and it was surprisingly not too difficult.

Thought I'd share the process here, in case anyone else would like to give it a go.

Step 1: Googled an image of the tower and recoloured it according to theme. I needed 2 towers for each standee.

Step 2: Got the image printed on A3 sticker paper and stuck on foam board.

Visits: PD-Seremban Day Trip

It's the school holidays! Yay!

Since we didn't have any big holiday activity planned, we decided to make a day trip down south.

It was a relatively economical, yet activity-packed, much-needed break.

Sand, Sun & Surf

The kiddos wanted some beach time, so we left early in the morning to Port Dickson.

It's been a long while since we've been to a Port Dickson beach. In fact, I don't think the kiddos have ever been.

Based on a friend's recommendation, we packed some buns/pastries and made our way to a stretch of public beach at Tanjung Kemang.

It was a public beach, but we were pleasantly surprised at how clean it was.

We bought some (overpriced) beach toys from the nearby stalls as our own had become too brittle as they were left out in our sandpit.

We got to make use of yet another new picnic mat Mummy bought (Mummy loves picnic mats!), and it was so comfy to lie down and chill as the kiddos played in the sand and sea.

What a sight to start a morning!
