dad's big birthday!

well, two days ago, my dearest dad celebrated his birthday. and not just any birthday, but his FIFTIETH (shh, don't tell him i said how old he was, else i'll get into trouble. :P)! mother and i had already asked him where'd he like to go for his birthday dinner, but dad just opted to have dinner @ home and invite some friends over. anna was making sushi, aunty a was buying the cake and lee was bringing some fruit.
dad even created a menu! entree was garlic bread, main was ling fish (me: BAHAHAHA!!! :P)and peking duck there was cake for desert and fruit, tea and coffee.
lee arrived late, unsurprisingly. :P but food was yummy and we all just chatted about random things. i didn't return online after dinner coz i wanted to celebrate dad's birthday with him. :)
-when cake was served, we all stood up around the table while lee and anna took photos for us. hmm, wonder if dad's put them on facebook yet ... must check.
-i walked our guests out and thanked them for coming; not really sure why aunty a's car needed pushing, though?
-mother immediately forced me to bed right after everyone'd gone home.
-but once i was in bed, dad opened his birthday presents! mum had bought him a new wallet, but mine was way cooler - i'd gotten him a new, 1000 piece puzzle!
-actually, on thursday night, i'd left bear bear to teach oem and voem how to sing the happy birthday song!when dad came to kiss me goodbye that morning before he went to work, we all sang the song for him! then oem and voem smothered dad with eye-kisses. :) dad also opened his birthday card from me before heading off to work, but said he'd leave the presents for the evening.
-anyways, dunno when my next post here will happen. maybe chinese new year! it's around feb. 3rd, methinks. cya then!
cheers,
em. ^^
