Random Thoughts

Oh, "we" had a blast this weekend! Last Friday was my (Baby) Alex' first birthday. I took the half day off from work and celebrated her bday. My Mom invited a few kids around the area, and they had so much fun! The theme was Dora, the explorer. After the kids' party, we went to Serendra to have dinner.

Another party was set yesterday, Sunday, and it was a Hawaiian (Lilo & Stitch) Theme Party. Oh, it was a great party! (well, at least for us, parents, mwehehehe!)

I love the personalized backdrop by the Clowning Around

The suppliers for Alex' birthday did a great job! They really made my baby's birthday a memorable one! And they are all highly recommended!

Venue - Valle Verde 6 Clubhouse - Great place for parties. Sakto sa theme. :)

Caterer - Party Time Catering Services - they all love the food. Suki of the family. We had chicken teriyaki, roast beef and mashed potato, lasagna, lumpiang ubod, potato salad. Yum! They also did a great job in setting up the place. I love the colors of the table cloths. They also had nice stuffed toys in the buffet table instead of the typical buffet setup. And the waiters also wore hawaiian shirts, which is really nice. :)

Party Organizer, Hosts, Amazing Buble Show, and Backdrop - Clowning Around (http://www.clowningaround.com.ph/default.asp) - Wow, I so love the hosts (Mr. Experiment 4000 and Missy). They wore hawaiian attires. They were great, the kids love them and had so much fun. The party manager was also easy to talk to and was very accomodating. She managed the program of the party pretty well. I love the backdrop too!
The Bubble Show was indeed amazing. They had stories about the bubbles, bubble bday cake, etc. It was complete! Although wasn't able to watch the whole thing, but the guests especially the kids loved it!

Photographer - Ken Go (http://www.photosbykengo.com) - suki na din of the family. He was the photographer of my Father-in-law's bday party. Galing talga. Will post the pictures soon.

Food carts, Game Booths, and Cake - Jelly Bellies (http://www.jellybellies.50g.com/) - What I like about them is super daling kausap. They would reply asap, they would tend to your questions as soon as they can. The food carts were ok, game booths a little small from what I've imagined, same with the cake, small from what I saw in the pictures, but ok lang. No biggie.

Dirty Ice Cream - Bukas Palad - they all loved it! Kahit di ko natikman. Super nice manong sorbetero pa and cheap lang. Ok sila. :)

Choco Fountain - Pepel Spandonis - The guests loved the choco fountain. It was very affordable and ang dami, dami na! Although the fountain was a little small, pero ok lang, the kids loved it!

Glitter Tattoo - Glimmer Tattoo - siempre my friend, Rica is part of glimmer tattoo. Galing. The kids loved it!

Prizes and Pails (as giveaways) - Divi - Siempre the ever reliable divisoria! Cheap, cheap, and cheap toys. Special thanks to ercs, my good friend for going with me to divisoria and for putting up with the SUPER heavy bags that we had to carry from divi mall to the parking area. Thank you, thank you, Tita Ercs!! Mwah!




Leis and Grasskirt - Quiapo! - the best, super cheap. Special thanks to my Mom who went there and had patience in looking for cheap leis and grasskirts. Thanks Ma! Mwah!

Well, until now, I still couldn't believe that the party is over. Hehehe! We loved it so much and we really had so much fun! Hmmmm, looking forward to Alex' 7th bday and Debut!!! (*wink*)
