Although we are all wearing shorts and feeling like it is summer here, we have begun to prepare for Christmas. This week, our apartment concierge staff hosted an afternoon tea and tree decorating party for the ladies while the kids decorated gingerbread houses and ate cookies. They even special ordered a live Christmas tree, which smelled wonderful and made it really feel like Christmas time.
We bought our Christmas tree today from the supermarket and carried it home, along with our groceries, on the MRT. We had to laugh when we got off the MRT with all of our bags, and our Christmas tree in a box, and were caught in a thunder and lightning storm! We are pretty used to this by now and find the storms to be amazing. We have never heard such loud thunder or seen such spectacular lightning.
Please note the amount of grocery bags that the kids are carrying (with no complaints) and the 29 dollar Christmas tree in a box. Each time we get groceries, we attempt to buy a rolling cart, but so far they have been out!
The gingerbread house looks awesome--did you take it home to eat? Gramps
