Year end, the kids are occupied with concert to show off what they could have achieve for the year. Kaiwen has singing soloand violin performance done at conservator and KaiXin was a beautiful ballerina dress in pink.

The closing BBQ was just great. It is to celebrate a good year all the ladies have doing our monthly lunch, husband to meet the friends that the wives are always bragging about, children to be friend. I took the opportunity for friends to visit my new home that I just moved in the pass 2 months. This time we had a suprise party for a Shodai (Tomoko's son) that just turn 13. They love it so much here that time pass so fast and the family was here 8 years already. The occasion was also a sad one since Helen (from UK) is leaving us for Luxembourg due to her husband relocation. Most of us are here, because of our husband too. With a group like this, there will always be somebody new (Brandy from US) and somebody leaving.
