Keeping it alive...

Well, I realised that Fiona has been faithfully posting up stuff but I've been quite a laggard in this aspect. She's really been great in keeping everyone posted on the progress of this major event in our lives.

We've been running the thought of possibly changing venues because we don't feel too good about certain aspects of our current choice. But costs run pretty high in the rest of the venues and we're really praying that things will work out.

We're also planning a 2-4 week fast before our wedding to prepare ourselves. All we really want is for the presence of the Lord to be in the midst of His people. In His presence, people are changed.

Do keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we trudge through this path that we've never walked.

Kelly's birthday celebration


Dinner at Wildrocket Dinner with the family @ Beads Restaurant

Thanks to Wen Ching's recommendation, we had dinner at the wildrocket, tt's somewhere at mount emily, behind the new cathay cinema. Do check it out, it's rather interesting, opened by a lawyer turned chef. A must try is the duck, which kelly ate, very good indeed!

Had a good weekend, particularly enjoyed Resurrection Sunday's message.(http://www.cscc.org.sg/cornerstone/spiritualfood/spiritualfood2.htm) It's crystal clear, the hope that the resurrection of Jesus brings. I'm so glad that apart from saving me from death, there's an eternal glory to look forward too, with new heavenly bodies to boot!
Are you certain of your eternity?

We checked out a wedding at plaza hotel...

Hello everyone,

We went to a wedding dinner of one of our friends at Plaza hotel. We were eager to test the food and see how things were run.

In general, the food was deemed as above average (didn't really meet our expectations though).

We didn't really find the atmosphere good somehow... don't know why.
The music was way too loud at certain parts and we felt that the food progression was really slow. We ended at about 1045pm... Aiming to wrap everything up, including dessert, by 10pm for ours. We don't wanna be a drag for our relatives and friends.


We're really going to try to start on time (730pm). It will be unprecedented especially in Singapore's "everyone's-going-to-be-late-anyway" wedding culture! But we're going to make it REALLY clear to all our guest that we really appreciate that they be on time.

We're also having some issues with the guest list. Praying for wisdom on how to handle that...

Grace and peace for the week ahead everyone! Its a short work week! :)

This is a Friday that we REALLY have to thank God for... because it reminds us of the price that He paid for us.
