[eliaw]

Hi all,

Managed to get all the gifts yesterday from Toys R Us.. Estimated at $9.95 per gift..

 

[kitsune_sg]

Thanks, Eliaw, think the kids dun need much to be happy. $9.95 per child sounds great.

so how much per pax do we need to pay?

 

[kitsune_sg]

Oh ya, for bouncy castle, does every child need to pay? How about our no. 2? RL only just turned two, think she doesn't know how to play on it yet plus I am afraid it will be dangerous for her age.

 

[isobellies]

Eliaw

You are so super organised!! Thanks for all the hard work yah? Just tell us where to meet and how much to pay

 

[toot]

eliaw,
thanks so much for organising! pls let me know if you need help in advance with the party... can try to come down earlier to help out...

mummies,
my suggestion is to skip latex baloon as the kids already have the door gift so i suspect they would not be too bothered by baloons? but that's just my opinion so voice out if you think otherwise

In terms of total cost - let me try to help eliaw calculate based on the estimated cost above :

Per kid (w/ bouncy castle) : $22.45
Per kid (w/ bouncy castle+baloon) : $24.95

Per adult : $10

 

[kitsune_sg]

Hi Eliaw, sorry last min, got a appt with client. May not be able to make it for the Sat gathering anymore cos don't know what time my appts will end. Will take my names out first. If I manage to push forward my Sat appts, will update again on friday. Sorry for inconvenience.

Re: X'mas Bash

Just spoke with Bkk, she just bought the balloons this morning, so will go ahead with it..

Iso, no choice but to be quick, cos i went to RWS over the weekend.. just checked out today and back home.. no time to lose!

Door gift: i bought 2 different pressies, one for the older kids, one for the younger ones. The pressie for the older kid is $9.95, younger one is $10.10.. Therefore, average is $10 per kid..

I had bought a total of 13 + 10 pressies at 1:45pm on Sunday.. N unfortunately, i saw Genice's msg only after I made the payment.. However, I managed to ask my SIL to bring her kids so that i can give the pressies to them instead.. Bkk, will include them for the bouncy..

Kitsune, hope you can make it.. if not you need to pay for the gift.. unless someone else can bring 2 kids to take her place.. hope you don't mind..
N also for any last minute cancellations, i will need mummies to pay for the pressies, unless there are other children coming to replace them..

I'll be sending all of you PMs with my address and directions to my place as well as my contact numbers..

[eliaw]

Re: Bouncy

If weather is good, Bkk might bring a water bouncy.. So do pack extra clothes or swim wear in case!

 

[eliaw]

Have sent out the PMs.. If didnt receive, pls PM me.. thanks!!

 

[bkkgal]

Hi eliaw,

The balloons are $1.50 each. Not likely to bring a water bouncy as there are several parties that day. But an extra set of clothes + towel is a good idea. They will play until sweat.



Eliaw, text me your add ok? We will be there at 3 to set up. See you all on Sat!

 

[eliaw]

Revised Costs:

Adults - $10 estimated
Children - Total $24.00 ($12.50 for Gifts, $11.50 for Bouncy)

[eliaw]

Hi mummies,

Which CCs are good in Bedok / Tanah Merah Area?

 

[kitsune_sg]

Eliaw, sure, I'm ok to pay for the pressies since you already paid. Can you PM me your account no and amt to pay? Can you pass the pressies to Xy and I'll collect from her?

<Xy, hope that's ok with you. Thanks.

 

[tongtong8]

Eliaw I didn't receive your pm..

 

[julyclover]

Hi mummies!

3 plays will be on early next year. From the weekend of CNY to early Feb.
1. The tiger who came for tea
2. We are going on a bear hunt
3. Stick men

If u book all 3 plays together, u can get 15% discount. If 2 plays, 10% discount. My mil is bringing A3 to watch the first play.

 

[kitsune_sg]

Clover, thanks for the update. We have the book for the second play. Maybe can bring the gals.

 

[eliaw]

Kitsune, hope yr appt end early n u can still make it for the gathering.

Tong, I already gave my address to u cos that day u fb me?

Clover, I m very keen on the plays, but $38 per tic is too expensive.. So will give it a miss.

 

[tongtong8]

Eliaw oh I thought u will state something else in your pm too hhe. Ok got it thanks!

 

[eliaw]

[tubao]

Hi, Eliaw

I am interested in 3 little pigs show. Is it possible to book on Sat/Sun so that I don't need to take leave?

Remember that C goes to Elton house CC. Why need to change CC for him?

 

[bluegin]

Hi Eliaw,

I cannot go to our Xmas gathering. My hb company has their Xmas gathering then. So have to be there.

Gals,
Any suggestion of gifts for 5 boys? one (1 yr old, 3yrs old, 6 yrs old, 8 yrs old &amp; 12 yrs old)?

 

[eliaw]

Tubao, weekend tix cost $28 + $3 booking charge. That's why I prefer weekday. N I still have ML to clear.

I'm asking for my fren.. She stays in Bedok/Tanah Merah..

Bluegin, Alamak! Then how? Try to come? U need to pay for the gift too..

 

[garfield9]

Eliaw count me in for 3 little pigs am ok with proposed timing. Will pay you the cost of Xmas gift plus the two plays i owe you plus 3 little pigs this sat

[tubao]

Mummies,

So nice to catch up with you girls and kids! E had so much fun to play with kids at the same age(month). My twins had equal fun there, and fell asleep just in the car.

Eliaw,
You slim down so fast! I still got 3 inches waistlines to go.

pauline,
i've paid for you and collected the presents.
forgot to sms you as i seldom use handphone on weekends.

eliaw,
thanks for the wonderful party and presents and cup cakes and more...
big C is very happy and keep telling me what happened during the party.
she had fun with the bouncy, chasing after the uncles.. haha..
