The Date
We celebrated Danelle birthday on 20th June which is a father day too! Thus many of our friends couldn't join us in the party. Looking back last year, Danelle was borned on father day too so every year, we will be celebrating Danelle birthday and father day together. :)
The Venue
Initially we were considering to hold the party at the functions of Carabelle condo and Ferraria Park. However, it was not available on the date that we want. Not sure is it becos it is June holiday so more difficult to book it? So... at the very last hour, i suddenly remembered my ex-colleague Wayne who is also staying at condo near my place and I asked him for help. He managed to book a function room at CitySq residences for me. Yeah, thank God for his provision else we will be holding the party at the community centre opposite my house. :P
The theme
It was a pooh bear party which is similar to Adelle cos Danelle likes Pooh Bear too. :) Anyway, i still have the Pooh bear decorations that was used in Adelle birthday party last year. So i just need to re-use it and add some new party stuff that i bought and was stuck at VPOST previously.
The day
Adelle and Danelle were dressed in the new summer beach dresses that i bought from BP. They looked so cute and pretty in the dress! To match them in the attire, i wore my old flowery top and hubby too.
We reached the function room at 11am and my maid helped to blow up the balloons while i do up the decoration. It was not easy with 2 kids asking for attention while we have to quickly do up the place with minimum help. Thank God for Wayne and Rachel who helped us to look after the gals so that i can concentrate on the decorations. Hubby went out to get the balloons pumped up in helium and also to collect the birthday cake from Pine Garden. This time, i decided to go for Pine Garden cake instead of eCreative as i always wanted a 2 tier cake and finally it is a dream come true! :P I borrowed the Pooh decoset from my fren and chose the Pooh flowery designs. I simply love the cake!! It's soooo pretty and taste good esp the Lychee Martini! :P~~~ Everyone gives thumb up for the cake.
We also invited Danelle friends (Kaley, Augustine, Genieve, Nesher, Sofie and XiuYing) to join us in the celebration and have a small corner with toys for the babies/tods to hang-around. :) We bought colorful balls to give to each child as the party favors since it is "World Cup" season now and the tods loves playing with balls.
The buffet spread of the day was from Mum's Kitchen as i am a regular customer and so far they have not failed me yet.
We managed to cut the cake at 2pm before Danelle took her nap. Danelle was quite cooperative although she was getting tired and clapped her hands when we sang her the birthday song. We also tried to feed her birthday cake but she seemed to enjoy biscuits more than cake for now... :) Soon after she had the cake, she K.O and our guests start to leave.
After the party
The party ended at 3+pm with Julia & Chee Wee being our last guests of the day. It was nice to see them making a trip down for the party and also I was happy to see Asher too! :) We managed to pack and squeeze all the presents into our Freed in 1 trip! Danelle had a happy time opening up her presents when she is back home. Thank You Uncles, Aunties, Kor Kors and Jie Jies for coming to the party and thank you for your lovely gifts/angbaos! :)
