Navy Open House 2010

Hubby's off today (I just simply love his weekend offs), and we visited the Navy Open House 2010 at Changi Naval Base.

Hubby and I slept late last night and all of us woke up at 9am.. I was supposed to wake up at 7am to prepare Alvis' lunch to bring out but ya, I overslept. :P

The weather was very hot, the sun is as scorching as ever, with tons of Mustela sun protection cream I applied on Alvis baby, we got to the event..
Because today was the last day of the open house, it was pretty crowded..
We parked our car at Singapore Expo and took the chartered bus in.. Luckily hubby picked a good spot, our car was shaded. :)

It was our first time to the Navy Open House and despite traveling the distance and the trouble we had to take on shuttling there, it was an eye opener event and it was my first time seeing those ships. (sorry, besides calling those ships S-H-I-P-S, i don't know if they should be called differently) haha.

Hubby love told us to pose for a picture but Alvis baby refused to take his eyes off the ships thus... I posed for the camera myself! haha!

If not for the crazy weather, we could have taken more family photos. Standing a minute more under the sun not shaded hurts the skin so much.

I was glad we lugged the stroller there, at least Alvis baby could sit under the canopy with the fan at full speed.

Couldn't take the heat, I decided to give us ice-cream treats! Almost everybody was eating ice cream at the open house. haha..
Alvis baby was granted special permission today to have that much ice-cream, just for today. heh..

and he gestured 'good' to Daddy with the ice-cold-ice-cream in his mouth.. :)

Hubby said that this shot was the most difficult to capture as the flag was either flying the wrong direction or not fully spreaded..

Photobucket

Nice shot! :)
The flag was at its half for late Dr. Goh Keng Swee..

We didn't stay at the open house for long because we felt it was not very healthy to expose Alvis to the afternoon sun for too long.. we hurried off back to Singapore Expo and then headed to town to run some errands..

Had dinner at Shokudo and it was home sweet home.

Happy Sunday Family Day.

I hope Hubby will always get his 2 weekends off in a month, at least. hee..

I am gonna keep this blog as updated as before (when I managed our first blog)
I like how we have a journal of the past wonderful memories I've blogged..
But if time permits, I would really love to have a physical diary of our happy family...

Good night world.

with lots of love

*ps: i love how the pictures appear so big, i'm glad i finally achieved it. but its a tad too big, think the pictures got cut off a little. shall be perfect the next time i do it. :)
