Another day of back-to-back events. After Chinese school, art class and abacus class, we rushed to the Hip Hop / Cookie Decorating event arranged by Starlight. The girls were good spirits and participated in their first hip-hop dance class. During the warm-up session, Ashley definitely came out of her shell; however, the small break during the class caused both of them to not join in on the dancing. When you have hot chocolate, with marshmallows and several types of sprinkles, the motivation to continue with the hip-hop class is non-existent since one can enjoy the former. The kids reluctantly completed the class and rushed over to the cookie-decorating class.
We, including the parents, were given a gingerbread man, snow man and a Christmas tree to decorate. Royal frosting bottles, mini M&Ms, mini chocolate chips, sprinkles, marshmallow, etc. were provided for the decoration process. We all dressed up in our chef outfit and went to town on those cookies. As you can see from the photos below, there were many creative designs from the kids. This event was a huge hit with the girls and they wouldn't mind doing it again.
Unfortunately, we had to rush to the next event held by Kristie's Foundation at Irvine Park. Luckily, we caught the last train for the group, took photos with Santa Claus and enjoyed popcorns. We chatted with some of the volunteers while the kids ran around. Already tired, we headed back home shortly to clean up from a day's events!
