hehe... as tired as i am now... (a full-pledged panda by now!), i just wanna say that im glad i made it for the "surprise" party we had for del and dennis just now. thankyou everyone for making the effort to come! hehe.. im blogging so that the rest who were unable to make it would not feel left out! hehe... im sure you all wanted to be there too! er...although there wasnt much of a surprise, as all the other years! wahaha.....

let me see who was there.... on the girls' side, we had aileen (duh... it was at aileen's house!), chin ling, jacq, carolyn, dawn, joanna and me!
on the guys' side, we had chi wern, joe, kelvin, daniel, and lionel.
last but not least, we had del and dennis waiting for our "surprise"!

we didnt do much la... we just pigged out while waiting for the couple, and cracked lotsa jokes. and aileen made us wear the animal hats for the party!
while del and dennis were on their way up, we started trying to clear the mess, and had to make it look like there were only the guys there to surprise dennis. after singing the birthday song 3 times (the usual, english, chinese, and christian version), the girls sprung out of the room with yet another cake to surprise del. and another bday song.

haha... well, all the above mentioned was only the plan la! i supposed it did happen that way, or so it seemed! heh...

nevertheless, the best part was definitely the jokes, the gorging of food, and the fellowship! carolyn broke a chair in the midst of everything (lets just wait for her to share how she broke it! keke....), we laughed alot at chin ling and aileen (as usual), and we took lotsa unglam pics (if chin ling would be so kind to post it up for us! hehe..)!!! carolyn also made a video clip for them, with all previous pics and funny captions that made me realised that we are really getting older!!! thanks carolyn for the wonderful video! =p

dear del, Happy Birthday! thanks for being such a great mother to all of us! personally, you've really touched my life as much as you did for the rest, and really... we dont often say it out loud, but you really mean alot to us.

thanks for being such a great blessing,
thanks for being ever-so-patient,
thanks for tolerating all our nonsense,
thanks for setting aside time just to be with us,
thanks for not giving up on any of us,
thanks for holding on to all of us,
thanks for praying unceasingly for us,
thanks for your guidance,
thanks for your corny-ness,
thanks for loving us as your own.
indeed, i thank God for YOU!

amen!

=p
