Hubby’s grandma recently celebrated her 90th birthday. It was a big celebration attended by family and friends. It was also a nice reunion. Some relatives and friends performed special numbers in her honor. There were fun games and big raffle prizes. Guests enjoyed making wacky poses at the photo booth.
This is a picture of Lola Mary’s cake. It was a nice three-layered chocolate cake. It had pink and white flowers and little ribbons. It was heartwarming when she went up the stage to blow the candles.
God is so kind to bless her with ninety years of grace. May she continue to receive more blessings in life.
Tomorrow is the 90th birthday celebration of hubby’s grandmother. It’s a big gathering of family and friends. Ninety years is an amazing milestone worth celebrating. My little boy prepared a short recitation dedicated to his grandmother. As one of our gifts, we bought a sign frame with the celebrant’s picture and printed words saying “Celebrating 90 years of blessings.” I’m going to pass it around so guests can sign it. I hope hubby’s grandma will like it.
My son is turning 7 years old this coming Sunday. He won’t have a big party at home. We’ll just have a small birthday celebration at home. In lieu of a birthday party, I’m fulfilling his wish. I got him a Play Station 3 plus games. It’s hidden at the other room. I’m going to wrap it later. He also has a big surprise gift coming soon. It is still in transit and might arrive 45 days from now.
Hubby will bake cupcakes for his birthday celebration at home. I will attempt to make my own cupcake stand. I saw a good DIY cupcake tower tutorial online. I hope I can find the materials later so I can start with the project today.
Tomorrow is my son’s advance birthday celebration in school. I’m a little worried because there’s a storm right now. I’m hoping classes will not be suspended tomorrow.
These are my son’s birthday giveaways for his classmates. They are miniature pots with wooden clips in various shapes. There are land animals, sea creatures and insects. I personalized it by clipping a printed name of each of Yohan’s classmates. I placed them in clear plastic and tied them with yellow ribbons.
My brother gave me a laptop for my birthday two years ago. It was a thoughtful and generous gift. I still have my trusty old desktop at home. My son often uses it during his free time to play online games. I found great online sites that offer free educational programs. In fact, my son enhanced his reading skills through online educational reading programs. Yohan is turning seven years old this coming July. He is asking for a nice gift in lieu of a big birthday party. He wants his own laptop for his birthday. I’m considering buying him a netbook as a birthday present. I can also use it from time to time. Since it’s very handy, I can easily bring it with me when I go out.
Yohan celebrated his sixth birthday last Saturday. We had a small celebration for the family at home. Hubby prepared Japanese food for dinner and he also cooked spaghetti as a symbol for long life. The highlight of the evening was the game we prepared for the family. The name of the game was “How well do you know Yohan?”. Hubby and I prepared some questions about Yohan and some small prizes. Yohan acted as the “game master” by reading the questions and giving out the prizes. Everyone had a terrific time.
Earlier today, Yohan had another celebration. He had a post birthday celebration in school. We brought food, cake and loot bags for Yohan’s teachers and classmates. It was a fun day for all.
We just attended a party last night and we are off to another one today. My family and I were invited to attend a double birthday party. It’s the joint celebration of our family friend’s grand daughters. It’s a children’s party and my son is very excited. There will be a lot of fun games and activities for sure. I’m expecting a lot of tempting sweets which will make Lipovox quite handy.
Last Wednesday, my friend, Siony treated my family to a nice lunch at Max’s. She also brought along her daughter, Colenn who happens to be Yohan’s classmate in Kindergarten. We celebrated three special occasions: her birthday, my hubby’s birthday and her wedding anniversary. It was a post celebration of all those special occasions. Siony misses her husband who works as a chef in a luxury cruise ship so she decided to celebrate their day as well.
It was a hearty lunch. We ordered Max’s friend chicken, pancit and my favorite kare-kare (a popular Filipino dish). We didn’t have room for dessert so we skipped it. If I keep having luncheons like this, I would have to resort to taking pills for diet.
Yohan celebrated his 5th Birthday last Friday (July 18). I couldn’t believe my little boy has grown so fast. Here are my 5 Birthday Wishes for my son…
- happiness
- best of health
- good grades
- wonderful friends
- fun, fun, fun
Tonight we’re having a small birthday celebration for Yohan. He turned 5 yesterday and he had a birthday celebration in school. Tonight we’re having another celebration at home for the family. Yohan is very excited to see his grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins.
Hubby is currently busy preparing food for the guests. He is making BBQ ribs, fresh green salad and crispy fried chicken. For dessert, he will make sponge cake topped with fresh fruits and ice-cream. Yaya made my favorite spaghetti.
I have gained considerable weight over the past few months and after tonight, I’m sure I will gain more. I might be needing the help of some weight loss pills to help me lose those extra pounds.
