Another Optimus Prime he bot with Barricade . These are from the Transformers Movie.

The exact display cabinets we had in our living room are out of stock @ IKEA... IKEA onli has those in light pine colour, which dun match our colour scheme in the living room... so decided to hv cabinets custom made...

Gonna hv display cabinets made in our study room 4him to play his toys n some suspended shelves in the guest room =)

The contractor jus came to do some measurements & noted our requirements last Sat... he wil call Dearie once the drawings are ready =)

There could be more to come... his exact words...

Wedding Reception on 11 Jul 07

A 2nd wedding reception in a garden setting we hv attended so far... On 11 Jul 07, we attended Dearie Bro, Soh's & Karina's wedding at Mandai Orchid Garden! It was Dearie's 3rd thou, whr the one he attended alone was at Fort Canning Park, he said it was very hot n uncomfy...
Luckily the ones we attended together as a couple @ Botanic Garden Au Jardin last year & Mandai Orchid Garden on 11 Jul were nice =)

We oso took a few pics of the surroundings, so as to serve as a reference for 1 of my jiemeis, Jieying, who is currently doing some research on possible venues for her ROM in Oct 07! So happi 4 her! =)

 Group Foto! =)

Similarly to wedding banquets, the couple oso had champagne toasting n cake cutting... however, the emcee toked too softly n nobody shouted "yam seng" which was a bit funni n disoriented... they oso walked down the aisle scattered wif orchid petals on the floor... the wedding planner oso gave us packets of orchid petals for us to scatter as the couple walked down the aisle... Dearie was v notti n "took revenge" on the groom who had thrown flower petals on his face whn we got out of our wedding car last year... haha!

the wedding flavour was a small pot of plant for each guest... the wedding planner specifically instructed us to transfer the plant to a bigger pot when we get home for the plant to grow & thrive... the groom jokingly told us dat wedding flavours at Mandai Orchid Garden are pots of plants whereas it could be some other unique flavour at the Mandai Zoo!

7 Jul 07, a significant date to tie the knot wif ur loved ones...

It was Sleepytoon's ROM in the afternoon whr she onli invited her relatives and closest frenz... she has promised that she wil invite us to her wedding =) @ nite, we attended my mother-in-law best fren daughter wedding dinner @ Club Chinois @ Orchard Parade Hotel.

She had held her ROM @ Botanic Gardens Au Jardin Restaurant last year, oso another significant date on 11 Nov 06... so during her wedding dinner, she showed the video of her ROM on 11 Nov 06... but she din show those foto videos of their childhood, pak-tor daes etc, which me been looking fwd to...

Her "evening gown" is quite special, instead of changing into an evening gown b4 her 2nd march-in, she jus put on a tiny translucent jacket over her gown, magically turning into an evening gown! Idea hor?

Her wedding nite brot back memories of our wedding nite too... hee... come to think of it, ours realli v funni... alot of speeches, jokes, sabo by Dearie's platoon mates n colligs n my ex-PA cohort mates... on top of dat, we hv Willie Foo taking fotos n putting them "live" on the screen on stage for everyone's viewing pleasure...

We oso saw our wedding videographer, Chris during her wedding! So qiao! Apparently, he's so popular dat the wedding couple had to book him more than a year ago! =P

Transformers Toys

Dearie finalli bot his long-awaited Transformers Toys, which he has been eyeing for quite a while since the release of the movie! Even way before the movie was released, we have seen the toys being displayed in major toy stores.... but when he finalli decided to get the Optimus Prime, it is off the shelves oredi and the other one he is eyeing left onli1 on the shelf... which is kinda 'used' wif so much finger fiddling by customers young n old...

Today, he finalli bot the Optimus Prime n Barricade toys! =) He managed to get them from the toy shop above Borders @ Wheelock Place... luckily new stock arrived today so that he can get his hands on them...

He's nw trying to transform Optimus Prime into the red truck... haha!! So engrossed, constantly looking @ the instruction manual while fiddling wif the toy... I oso tried transforming Barricade earlier from the police car to the robot itself... but failed miserably... halfway, Barricade looked so strange, wif the police car body n robot legs underneath... haha!! transformation failed miserably! Dearie subsequently tried n he succeeded! =P

Looks like we nid to get another display cabinet from IKEA, to add to our current 2 in the living room... Dearie said to have 1 solely for his toys while the other 2 wil b next to his (one on each side), wif all my Pooh n other cutesy stuff... hee
