November was a busy month of birthday parties and preparation for school events. It was also a sad month, as one of our close friends in Singapore - the Huxtables - were packing up their home and moving to Zurich. Jodie has been in Stephie's class for 5 years, and its been a sad month of preparing for their departure. We were very blessed to spend the last weekend with them and a total of 5 families at Nikoi Island, Indonesia. Paradise on earth!
Stephie came 2nd in a drawing competition! And won $30 Toys R Us voucher (and Sebastian received a $20 consolation prize) - both drew our chiropractor "minecraft" style.
At the end of the month, we celebrated our annual tradition of dinner on Orchard Road, afterwards viewing the Christmas lights. They are beautiful this year!
On Jodie's last day at school, Stephie broke her arm falling off the monkey bar half an hour before her ballet practice. We were 5 hours in the hospital, diagnosed with a broken and displaced arm bone. When she walked in to the doctor's office, the doctor asks her "Hello, what shall I call you?"... she looks at the doctor and says "Ellie, you can call me Ellie".
The next day, with a new cast she still went to ballet practice on a Saturday - and she saw the Mamma Mia show at Marina Bay Sands.
