Check out how she executed the Fantastic Mr. Fox Big Top theme with such … [Read more...]
5th Birthday Celebration in School
The Princess celebrated her 5th Birthday bright and early with her classmates last Friday. The teachers had reminded us that we only have a 15 minutes slot (from 8.15am to 8.30am) for the celebration so we kept it a very simple affair. Dana picked a Lilo & Stitch cake, we packed some lovely goodie bags (with a storybook and some snacks in it) and off we went to school. The children were delighted to see Dana as she had been absent from school due to a bout of fever and cold. Marissa … [Read more...]

A Fabulous 4th Birthday at Amazonia!
We hadn't planned on holding a party for Dana's 4th birthday this year. But the Princess had attended 2 parties previously at Amazonia and endearingly requested that she would love to have her 4th Birthday Bash at The Amazonia. Being the typical indulgent parents with no heart to disappoint our daughter, we diligently paid a visit to Great World City one weekend, signed up as an Amazonia Member and before hubby knew it, plans were under way for a Fab 4th Birthday … [Read more...]
A Fabulous 4th Birthday (In School)!
We celebrated Dana's 4th Birthday in grand style this year. Kicking off her celebrations was a simple party in her kindergarten.

This was no easy undertaking and Mommy spent many nights after work making sure all required ingredients are purchased and laid out. The week leading to the class party was filled with intensive baking and … [Read more...]

A glimpse of Dana’s 2nd Birthday Celebration…
On Good Friday, we threw an advanced Birthday Party for Dana. Never did we imagine barely 2 days after, Dana would be warded in the hospital for Kawasaki. Thank God for His healing hand and His wisdom on the medical team. Now that she's discharged, I finally can post an update on the party. It was exactly a week ago, when we were decorating the venue, storm clouds hovered over our heads and threatened to pour. Slight drizzle soon followed. Together with my hubby, we held hands at the … [Read more...]
