On a more serious note, Annabel's birthday is on February 5th, two days before Chinese New Year. To be honest, I have a mixed feeling of sad and happy.
Sad for not being able to go back to Malaysia to celebrate Chinese New Year with my beloved family this year.
Happy that my girl is growing up and she will be turning 6 next Tuesday.
Anyway, we have sent out birthday invitations to all her friends in the class and the RSVP turned out pretty good. About 3/4 of the class will be coming to the birthday party and we are expecting 25 to 30 kids and adults.
Tonight, we went to Ukrop's to get the birthday cake and some finger food for her birthday party at The Playroom this coming Saturday. Click here for more info about The Playroom.
Ukrop's is one of the locally owned grocery store in Richmond but the grocery price there is a little expensive compared to Krogers.
Look at the juice boxes and chips we bought from the store. The cart was 1/2 full and we spent over $50 just for the party.
A&E had salad for dinner.
Robert's Corn Beef Rueben Panini.
My "Not-So-Fresh-And-Super-Dry" Sushi.
Emma trying to use chopstick to eat her salad. I know, it's weird.
And Annabel did pretty good with the chopstick too.
Here are the $50 worth of groceries.

We have just submitted our tax return for 2007 and are expecting some money refund from Uncle Sam this year. YOOHOO! Haven't decided what to do with the money but a trip to Atlantic City would be interesting. C.A.S.I.N.O. - here I come!
