Birthdays – you can’t escape them. Braedyn’s first birthday was a quiet family affair and being human, we decided (daddykhong: It was solely mummy’s idea. I don’t fancy large gatherings) to hold a big bash for his 2nd birthday.It was a very rushed job and we only had 3 weeks to locate the venue and finalise everything. Fortunately, it turned out rather well.
A very big thank you to everyone who came. An even bigger thank you to those who came with BIG and HEAVY gifts (we had trouble fitting them into the car boot). Thanks to the appointed photographer (we had an unofficial photographer present as well – but that’s another story
).
Bijou….can’t miss their huge signage at their front door
The birthday cake in a very girly pink colour. This is what happens when you tell the cake baker to decide the colour himself!!
Cupcakes for all guests. Those with flags in them are for the little kids.
The centrepiece table before guests arrived.
Shot of the dining area. Shot taken by one of the animals on the birthday cake (think it’s the horse)!
Party pack for the kids and its contents. Items all lovingly selected by Daddykhong.
Yummylicious food. Everyone loved the food. Too bad we didn’t eat much of it
Our birthday boy – Braedyn showing the entire party his latest trick….how to ferment food in one’s mouth!
Braedyn & Uncle Yao Han (Daddykhong’s youngest brother). Yes, the food is still fermenting and no, Yao Han is not related to a Japanese departmental store!
Swing time with Uncle Yao Han. Even now, we have no idea what was in Braedyn’s mouth. If anyone needs a safe deposit box for your diamond ring, you know who to look for.
Daddykhong introducing the animals on the cake to Braedyn. Note that the mouth is now open. Daddykhong will not tolerate such nonsense from the boy.
Cutting the cake
Happy parents with the birthday boy
Myself with Braedyn.

Spidey – Kieran. He obviously knows what he wants. First in the queue for face-painting. Well-trained to survive in Singapore!
Kylie – sweating it out at the gym
Fearles & Cruz – don’t they look adorable? Looks like one is right-handed and the other left-handed

Bloggers photo session (L-R) : Jazzmint & Vyktore, Mummykhong & Braedyn, Annie & Fearles & Cruz, Laundryamah & Kylie. This is probably the only time we saw Jazzmint without her camera!
Daddykhong’s very, very old friends.
More of daddykhong’s friends from W-A-Y back. If you want a good dentist, look for the handsome prince on the far right.
We had a face painter and a balloonist (if there’s such a word) come to keep everyone entertained. If anyone wants their contact, just ask. I think both were great.
Our biggest regret was forgetting to take pictures with our guests. We even forgot to take family shots. Well…..maybe some other day.
Of course Wendy’s bistro pork lunch/dinner on me. It’s Mr. Khong’s b’day!!! Any objections if I invite TYK?

Hi hi… Happy Birthday to little Braedyn. Wow… don’t worry about the color, the cake still looks very very nice… does it taste good?
Party was great! Hats off to you for organizing everything at the very last minute. And yeah, organizing a party or gathering is very the stressful. I’m sure I’ll get all stressed out this coming Saturday. Sigh. We should all go for a de-stress session. Massage anyone?
