23 August, our "meow meow" in the house finally turned 21! She finally got hold of the 'key to freedom'. Lots of effort & preparations has been made for this big party. Sourced for chalets, caterings & eg. since 2 months ago. Kudos to Eveline (aka ZeeZee-Ma) in doing me the favour to book the chalet & coming all the way down to check-in for us on 22nd, appreciate it. *muack*
We booked 3D2N from 22-24th August, the big party itself was on 23rd. Nevetheless, we decided to do a small-scale BBQ, just my own family on friday night after we checked-in & settled down everything. We were there to stay for the 2 nights & thus decided to bring Ebi along & sneak him in. I couldn't bring Emma (she would definately land me in trouble & get me chased out if she starts to screams as there will definately have kids around, muahahaa)~ Winnie & Ah Too offered to dog-sit & board Emma for me for the next 2 days, i would meet them on Sunday during the OT classes & bring Emma home after that. =)
They are 1 of the nicest people/couple around & our meet-ups are always fun & filled with laughter. They are the sort that will definately be there if i ever needs help & vice versa, i'll definately be there if they needed my help someday. These are what friends are for! Heez~ Thanks Winnie & Ah Too~ Hope Emma hasn't been up to much mischief & guessed she must have enjoyed her short stay over @ ur place. =p
Anyway, check-out the pics below;-

We even brought Satays & Otahs! Yummy!
Doreen & Freya BbQ-ing
We had prawns, sausages, sambal sotongs, hotdogs & eg.
Daddy even steamed Crabs, more sotongs & prawns~ Woolalaaa..
Tadah! Ebi in the chalet with us!
Boy, he must have been happy.
He got alittle bored while we were playing 'dai-dee'.. lol~
He felt abit grouchy & came over to interupt & disturb our game~ lol
Tiger beer for ya?
Ebi refused to pee/poo even with the pee-pads lined. He waited for me to sneak him out of the chalet & do his business on the grass patch. I tink we were being seen but nobody complained nor say anything. Phew~
Saturday morning, we had no car to go out & it would be silly to call a cab in for us to go out to E-hub/Downtown East for breakfast & come back. Moreover, we had Ebi with us. So, smart me decided to buy some food on friday & bring it over with us & thus i prepared Saturday's breakfast/lunch with the help of Cat + Bf & Freya. Geez!
My first ever prepared decent meal! Muahahaa~ Nice okay?
The whole afternoon were spent blowing balloons & doing up the decorations (we rented a helium tank from a wholesaler & did all the balloons bundles by ourself). Oh, i even bathed Ebi there with his LP shampoo & dried him as dry as possible with the absorbent towel since there were no hairdryers around. Ebi then proceeded to rest & nap on the sofa & air-dry himself, clever boy! (",)
The rain couldn't stop & it drizzled on & off. Luckily enough, the birthday cake managed to be delivered on time (btw 2-5pm). It was gorgeous! The 2.5kg cake costs nearly $300 without the member's 10% discount!

Our decorations @ the pavillon, saw the balloon bundles? hurhur~
And yea, our catering was from NeoGarden. We catered 70pax for a guest list of 100. The food were all slurped up clean & i think there wasn't enough. Luckily dad brought some rice to cook, otherwise the latecomers could only have the side-dishes & deserts, ooppsssss! Overall, i give it a 8.5-9 out of 10. The sales & delivery people were friendly & helpful, the presentation & layout was good & most importantly, the food was delicious! This is the first time in a buffet, i ever see the food all wiped out clean. LOLLL~
Seafood Fried Rice
Seafood Fried Bee Hoon
Mushroom Broccoli + Beancurd With Pacific Clam
Sze Chuan Prawn
Yam Ring With Prawn
Cereal Fish
Curry Chicken
Mini Chocolate Eclair
Drinks; Fruit Punch, Dessert; Sago Honeydew & Bo Bo Cha Cha
It was a $14.99 per pax menu & overall, it was value for money! Moreover, Cat had 15% off for 21st birthday celebration. After adding in some extra tables & stools, the total cost came up to approx. $1010.00~
