We hung around the house before heading out for dinner. My expression in this photo looks funny, but I like Jolie's look. She has really grown into her own look as she grows up. She has abit of us both but also her own look. So interesting!
Jolie's aunt bought her a big pink ball. Obviously she's still too small to play with it, but she'll have much fun with it when she grows bigger.
We expected the restaurants to be packed, so we wanted to eat early so that we can still come home and let Jolie play with her lantern before her bedtime.
We ate at Jumbo Seafood restaurant at East Coast. As expected, it was packed! Luckily we arrived early and managed to get seats before the dinner crowd came in. The food was absolutely delicious! We had crispy baby squid, spinach, mini yam rings with a whole scallop wrapped inside, drunken prawns and kung pao frogs. YUM~!
It was drizzling when we finished, but Jolie was quite curious of the area, so we took out our umbrella and strolled around for awhile. See how she loved to hold the umbrella? So cute!
We headed back when the rain started to get bigger. Jolie just recovered from her cold so I don't want her to be outside for too long. Back home we let Jolie play with the lantern that her grandma bought for her. It's a colourful bird that makes this loud screeching noises! Thankfully Jolie wasn't too timid, if it's other kids, probably they would have ran away crying from the horrible noise it makes. Haha...
When we got home the rain has stopped and I saw families playing with candles and lantern at the garden near our home. So Cobby and I brought Jolie there for a short walk. By then Jolie was already quite sleepy but still, she was quite intrigued with the other kids playing with candles and fairy lights.
So ends our 1st mooncake festival as a family. Next year Jolie would be able to run around by herself, then I guess would be another adventure altogether.
