Cameron Highlands Trip (9-10 June 2014)

This is going to be a word-less post. No, it is not wordless as in no words but just lesser words 😀

I just want to make a quickie post to update my blog and then plonk myself in bed. Oh my bed! I so miss my dear bed that I have not been sleeping in for 2 weeks! For the past few days, I have been sleeping past midnight to rush off deadlines for my online assignments. I submitted a draft to one of the advertisers at 1am just today.

Anyway, I better not go on and on. This is supposed to be a word-less post.

Enjoy the pictures that we took in Cameron Highlands during our 2-day 1 night stay from Monday to Tuesday.

Can you spot the 5 of us?  I am in my favorite color pink and holding on to my pink handbag 😀

Thank you Irene ‘Koo Po’ for spending time with us and taking us to see and ride on the horses.

 

The girls’ first ever horse ride on a beautiful white horse.

 

 

“No no no, I want to come down!” was what Cass said when the horse started to move  LOL!

Wall Decor

We are back in KL!  After a 8-day break at my parents in Ipoh, where we did a day-trip to Batu Gajah and  Teluk Intan, we also took the kids for an overnight stay at Cameron Highlands.    The kids had a very fruitful and enjoyable time this school holiday and so did I 🙂

When we got back to KL on Tuesday, I worked non-stop like a slave to clean up our home.  After a 1.5 week long renovation, our home was in a mess and super duper dusty.    Every single item visible was covered with dust, as a result of the hacking and drilling of the walls.  I was pleasantly surprised that the entire living room and dining area were re-painted and not just the affected areas.  The coat of paint is in plain white.  For someone who loves bright and vibrant colors, white is just not the color for me.   If I were given a choice in the color and design of the walls, I would definitely splash one or two pastel colors to the living room walls.

I will also consider putting some pretty wall papers to the walls of the dining area, like this tree wall decals…
 


Isn’t it pretty? With such a pretty wall sticker, you need not have to buy very expensive furniture or decor. The picture of the family tree on the wall lights up the entire dining area and it is so eye-catching. I just love it!

 

Part of the girls’ bedroom wall was also repainted as the contractor accidentally hacked through the wall, causing a hole on one side of the wall!  Again, if I had the choice in the wall decor, I would also stick some cute wall stickers to the kids’ bedroom, like this one from www.walldecaltree.com.

 

I know my girls would love to have one of these cute wall papers for their bedroom.   Well, perhaps the  next time when we have more time to plan the renovation and refurbishing, we will then reconsider putting up wall papers on our walls.  I would love to step into a home with vibrant wall papers decorating my walls.
