lovely joyciee with the flowers
all 200 bucks worth of them!
so i made my first attempt at flower arrangement. honestly, i thought it would be pretty simple and i was confident that i had enough aesthetic sense to make a decent looking bouquet. but from the moment i stuck the first flower in, i knew mine was going to suck. haha. i basically just grabbed random flowers that looked pretty on their own and stuck them in without any preconception of how they would turn out. hence, i actually managed to make the gorgeous flowers look ugly :(
sparse and without artistic direction. i did try!
the flowers had a beauty contest. mine obviously wasnt even in the running.
ok enough of the flowers.

us with grandma

and all the people who turned up! minus the two only grandsons - one who had to go back to army and the other who was taking the photo.
so it was a relatively pleasant night - a good start to cny! :)
