On the day of her birthday

As usual no big celebration for Destinee's birthday (9th August, Sunday) this year. It was a last minute preparation so din invite any of her friends. Des only wanted Charlett and Charmaine to join in. Called Elyss to bring her kids over.

Actually Des has asked Christine (Des's classmate & best friend in class and who's staying nearby) to come over to play as the exam was over. I called Fanny (Christine's mummy) to bring Christine over but they had to go to church cos Des din let Christine know dat it was her birthday. So, we started off with the 'party' without Christine.

Des with the food

As Des wanted to wait for Christine to join in before the singing of the Birthday song, we waited for Fanny to call. We picked Christine after Fanny called to say they were back.

Des counting the number of candles ....
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7
Correct, there're 7 candles.

When Charmaine saw Des closed her eyes

to make a wish, she too closed her eyes. *heehee*

Cake cutting

'Look at me, this is how I gobble the cake', says Christine.

The kids enjoying themselves playing "Boowa and Kwala"

on the computer.

After some time at the computer, it was time for Christine to go back but Des was reluctant to let her go, telling us dat it was still early but we told her we promised Christine's mummy dat we had to send Christine back at about 5.30 pm. After some reasonings and pleadings only did Des allowed Christine to go back *phew*.

Elyss later took the kids to Jusco's Wonderland.

Destinee definitely enjoyed the day and had a wonderful time.
