Christmas Eve 2010

We spent our first half day in Mid Valley. Me and Anna went for movie, Rapunzel, daddy and Isaac went for last minute shopping. Anna and I enjoyed the movie so much, and Anna was so sad when Eugine cut Rapunzel's hair, she almost cry.

After movie, we had a quick lunch at Sweet Chat and we heading home after that cause the mall was pack with people and very crowded.

Kids took their nap in the car, when we reached home, they both were filled with Christmas spirit and refuse to go to sleep anymore.

We were invited to our neighbor house for dinner on Christmas Eve, such a blessing to me that I do not need to crack my head to think what to cook on this special day :) Many many thank to Yanti, muak muak!

Checking out the working ants, as big as adult thumb

Roots look like an elephant

Amazing view, this is called Kapur tree, leaves can use to make "tiger palm"

beginning part she was a bit scared to go into the forest, she asked me a lot questions: What if we see a tiger, what if there is a witch live in the forest, What if a wolf come and catch me away,etc. Took me a while to comfort her, and I carry her at the beginning of the trail. Later on when she get warm up , she complete the trail by herself with very little help from me.

I am very proud of Anna, is her first time so close to the nature and the trail is not easy for a 3+ years kid. We definitely will make another trip to FRIM, to discover more things and have more fun :)
