I can still remember last year when we set up the Christmas trees with the Smith’s sisters.  And now, it is the time to decorate the Christmas Tree 2015.

Below is a link of last year Christmas Tree 2014.  Enjoy!

Getting The Tree

Looking at our next few weeks schedule.  It seems that today is the only day the kids can do something about the Christmas tree.  I will be traveling for the whole week, so, there should be no playdate next week, and after that, the Liew family’s vacation is due, and follow by the Smith Family vacation.

So, the parents exchanged What’sApp to discuss about it in the morning.  And here we are at Ikea on a Friday afternoon.

I never like the trees from Ikea.  So, I think it is a bad idea.  Although it is cheap, but look at the trees, so pathetic.  So, still a NO from Ikea.

So, we end up at Far East Flora @ Queensway there.

The kids were so excited as this is the first time they shop together for a Christmas Tree.

Yup, the kids get to choose the tree.  They outnumbered the parents, 4 to 3.  As Mr. Smith has work to do at the office.  :)

P1030357

Are you sure Kay Kay, you want this small little tiny tree?

P1030375

The kid has seem to decided on this one.  6-7 feet tree.  Not too bad.  Not too scary.  Not too tall.

P1030369

They always enjoy the wrapping of the tree.

P1030366

This is our tree in the wrapping process.  It is the first time the Smith’s sisters seen this.

P1030377

Done!  Please follow the tree.

P1030389

Let’s pay for the tree and bring it home!

MacDonald Dinner

It is cool for the kids to have dinner together at MacDonald.  

Easy for the parents as they no need to cook dinner tonight.  It is all about decorating the trees.

Transporting The Tree

All four kids get to sit in the car with the Christmas tree.  The love the mell of the tree.

And then few minutes later, we are at home.  Smaller tree also means lighter for me to carry.  I like!

IMG 4784

Squeezing the tree into the lift.  No problem!

IMG 4785

Let’s unwrap the tree.

IMG 4753

Here is the tree.

Kids, let’s feed the tree ICE WATER, and then, we can start decorating the tree.  Kay Kay, why you are blending in with the tree!!!

Decorating The Tree

It seems that the kids has chosen this year theme.  Not gold, not silver, not blue, but purple.  So, we recycled all the purple decors and use it for 2015.

IMG 4792

Let the fun begin.

P1030428

Jay Jay & Ashlyn.  They will do the “taller” part.

P1030408

Purple is my sister’s favourite colour.

P1030418

No wonder Ashlyn is always in her smile.

After the experience from last year, the kids knew what to do.

IMG 2096

Of course, we showed them the last 6 years Christmas tree so that they have an idea what to do.  And how to do it better.

IMG 4811

I must say, it is very nice.  90% kids efforts.  I myself DID NOT EVEN TOUCH ANY DECOR this year.  

That means the kids has grown up.

IMG 4808

And Kay Kay found his Christmas hat!

IMG 4828

Let’s put on the butterfly.

IMG 2100

Now, decision time.  A purple star?

IMG 2103

Or a Gold Star?

IMG 2104

And you have your answer.  A gold star it shall be.

P1030476

Lovely kids sit together.  How I miss my fireplace back in Canada.  hahaha

What About the Christmas Tree Downstairs At the Club House

We saw this tree by the swimming pool.  Condo usually do not have lots of budget to decorate the tree.  And it is so ugly.

What can the Santa’s little helpers do?

Let’s see what we can do about it too.
