Magical Moments with Decleor- Share & Win!! Contest

What is Christmas, without trips to the malls around town to capture the captivating decos throughout the month and all the last minute shopping and insane wrapping of gifts for loved ones? Truly an X'mas to remember, for I managed to spend time with friends and loved ones - the people who matter to me most. It was definitely a very memorable Christmas, especially for my dear 'di-di' from Germany, who spent a tropical Yuletide season with us! It was his second trip to Malaysia, and his first ever "sunny" 30+ degrees Christmas. Since then, he makes annual pilgrimage to Malaysia, to visit my little family, for the local delights and enjoy the Malaysian hospitality.

A few days before Christmas, I collected my new ride with Christoph and my family. It was certainly more comfortable than my old and trusted golden Mouse-deer. We had an awesome time going around town and even made a day trip to Seremban. Since this was his 2nd trip to town, we skipped the "compulsory tourists spots" which he had visited the previous year. This year, it was more like a "makan" trip, where we indulged in local delicacies - foods he had missed so much back home, and he had his favourite fruit - DURIAN! Not once, but twice! He said that Malaysian durians are the best, "Smells like sh*t, tastes like icecream".

On Christmas day, he joined my family and I at St Mary's Cathedral for the Christmas mass and we went for dimsum after that. Upon returning home, it was presents time! Beloved Johnny Boy was not left out, for he's more than a pet, he's family!

This year, it will be a totally different Christmas for us. Beloved Johnny Boy has been called to the Lord and gone to the Rainbow Bridge and he is sorely missed everyday. It is during this season of giving and loving that he is missed even more. However, a precious, robust and roaring Little Dragon will celebrate his first ever Christmas with us :-D
