Extreme Makeover

Tuesday, 27th November 2007

Last Saturday was an extremely eventful day.

That morning, I was at Safra Tampines for my company's annual bowling tournament, which I blogged about yesterday.

That afternoon, my son's room was being dedicated.

Back in Aug 07, my youngest sis Yvonne had moved out, so my dad told my son Mark that he could have the vacated room for his own.

Previously, all four of us (my wife, my 2 kids and I) shared the same bedroom. Then in Mar 06, my daughter had her own purple-themed room as her 10th birthday present.

And now, my son was given his own room too! No prizes for guessing what theme he wanted... yup, soccer.

And so it came to pass, praise be to God! His room was unveiled to him at about 3pm, after which Pastor Reuben led us through a "room dedication", prayed a blessing over him and presented Mark with a cross.

It is said that "a picture is worth a thousand words". So instead of me writing a hundred-thousand word thesis, here is a series of moving pictures (ie. a video clip) to depict the extreme makeover that the room underwent.



For the observant among you, the cross in the video belongs to my sister Yvonne. We returned it to her (to be used at her new home) and replaced it with the one that Ps Reuben gave Mark.
