Things have been super busy here in Singapore, with the beginning of a new school year, soccer, swim lessons, mid-Autumn festival and Ida Jane's big fifth birthday!
The birthday celebrations began with a trip to Hard Rock Cafe, where Ida Jane enjoyed being the center of attention. Everyone sang to her and she even got a hot fudge sundae!
Ida Jane had a blast at her birthday party. Lots of good friends were in attendance and everyone enjoyed the pirate theme.
We cannot believe our little Ida Jane is already 5!!
The girls have been enjoying their swim lessons with Coach Patrick.
Harper sings pretty much all the time...
Ida Jane is loving soccer. She is the only girl, but that doesn't bother her one bit!
Here she is learning how to play goalie!
Both girls are really enjoying school and mom is enjoying having them with her at Overseas Family School. At school, every holiday is celebrated, so the girls dressed up in traditional Hari Raya clothing.
With all of this going on, we still manage to get out and about in Singapore from time to time. Here are the girls dancing at Clarke Quay fountain.
We all enjoyed dinner at a Japanese restaurant. Check out Ida's skills with the chopsticks! Harper is still getting the hang of it...
A few days ago was the Mid-Autumn Festival. The girls loved the lanterns around town and enjoyed attending the celebration put on by our condominium.
Hope everyone is enjoying the beginning of autumn!!
