Wow!! Dad turns 70 today... what an achievement!
Hmm.. I should write a tribute to dad... but heh... I've been too depressed lately to do any special planning or write any nice stuff, sigh~ however, this is what we did to celebrate dad's 70th birthday!
We went for dinner, full family --with baby David (including baby Daniel who will be born soon), to the OUTBACK STEAKHOUSE at Millenia Walk last week... yes we celebrated it slightly earlier so that we can have everyone in the family present - just in case Bee goes into labour and baby Daniel is born earlier than expected. Awwww.... my 2nd nephew will be making his appearance soon!!!!!!! Oh my!
Dinner at Outback Steakhouse on 21 Jan 2007
(boy was it hard to get baby David to look at the cam!)
Dinner was rather nice at OUTBACK, except for the Service Staff (blehhhhh~), they don't taste as good as the Ribeye Steak and Sizzling Sirloins bwahahahha~!! We took some pictures and most of the time was spent fussing over Baby David.. trying to feed him, remove knives & sharp objects away from his reach and amusing him with songs and funny faces hahhahaha~! Duhhhh, who's the birthday boy I wonder? It was rather nice when the Waiters/Waitresses crowded around the table suddenly, clapped loudly and sang the Happy Birthday song to dad all in their own key & tunes. Someone should train them to sing better hahahaah... ok viv, don't be so critical, heh! Baby David was probably shocked by the sudden commotion and loud noises, so he started crying really loudly... awww poor baby... and he cried even louder when another guy turn to him and tried to make funny faces (errrm... that guy happens to look kinda hedious), oh my what a chaos~! We got dad to blow out the candle and promptly ate up the Brownie & icecream ... George love it so much he ate most of it. But yes, it is nice moist soft warm brownie.. yum! After dinner we head home early because its time for the baby to sleep... though it ws a simple celebration, it was nice and memorable! Most importantly, dad was happy.
Today, on the actual day... I wished dad a quick birthday greeting and rushed off to work. On my way home from work, I stopped by Swenson and bought an Icecream Mango cake. Then I went out with mum and bought some fried noodles ("SungMeen"), fried prawn-paste chicken for dinner. Mum was so sweet to fry 2 sunny-side-up eggs for dad too. George & Bee came over with David, and so over a simple meal we ate, and sang dad his birthday song.... dad looked pleased, and I'm glad. I still feel kinda bad we did not make a big big deal of his 70th birthday.. Hey, SEVENTY!!!!!! Most people would hold a massive celebration with at least 5 tables of guests at a chinese restaurant... but dad wanted it simple as well, hence we didn't invite the "relatives & friends", hehehehe.... (phew~!)

At home - grinning over sweet mango icecream cake~!
We should've really dress up more colourfully! ^^!
Oh yeeeahhhh.... I'm yet to bring dad to shop for his present, but we've agreed on getting him a nice digital camera. I will let him select it for himself...
Hmmmmm... I guess....That concludes the Birthday Celebrations!

I love you my dearest dad...
Thank you for everything you've done for me and your faithful love.
I will learn to take better care of myself so you won't have to worry too much. I just hope that I will marry a man whom you also think will love me and care for me and be good to me.. who makes me happy. I hope this day come soon so you can be happy for me.
And ooohhhh yes, of course, May you live to be a 100 and beyond... so, I'm wishing you another 30 years and more of excellent health, happiness, wealth, (hmm.... romance?)... and every good thing!
I love-ya love-ya love-ya love-ya daddy!!!
Hugs,
ying
