Where did we spend the last day of the controversial 2012 and babe's first new year's eve? So what did I do? Definitely did not take the chances of a noisy smoking night on a possible accident-prone zone called home, so we decided to spend the night at the Crowne Plaza Hotel :)
Everyone had fun on our short stay. Including mom, dad, my brother Miah and sister Beth :) Special thanks t Ate Zhai for making this one-night-only possible! Big hugs and wet kisses coming your way! :X
I let my sister do the kodak moments for I'm busy with bebe like all the time so yeah here are the photos edited by Beth! :D
The minute we enter our room, bang!
Doing some shopping for our stay! That fic pistachio was the bomb! Until it melts because the room's personal ref was "not intended for ice cream" as the housekeeping said it, nevertheless it was heavenful! (If ever heaven was a taste!)
They attacked babe like there's no tomorrow! Where am I? IDK... Those it matter?
Guess I'm at the loo, marinating myself on the tub?
Mike and babe :)
Beth modeling her favorites among our snacks...
With lolo and lola, I'm so thankful my dad is willing enough to babysit Clyde while were gone shopping! :D and good thing we have what we called "gerbers"! :P and babe not being a picky-eater - yet. (bracing myself for the possibilities...)
Cozy right? Thanks to me doing a pre prenup, if you get it...
At the pool, doing our best not to gnaw for the new years' air was chilled!

We are here to camwhore people but I'll save from the details! :P

The so-so:

Perfect place to stay if you are on a business trip because of the location, although if you are here just to relax, ask for a higher room so you could sleep without hearing the hassle of the busy highway. :)
