Isn’t cute? Thanks to my good friend Aggie for making it. It’s happening on their last day of school and it will done outdoor as they were really scheduled for a picnic. I prepared hats for everyone to wear while they will have a morning tea party. I’m an excited dotting mom again! I have the loot box already and will just need to buy items to put inside. I already ordered food and will just add up some cupcakes/donuts and drinks. Will post pictures next week.

For the meantime, let me recall the things I would like to share and just put everything in a  nutshell while I still cannot sleep at this time of writing (too much coffee for the day!) and taking advantage that I still have the blogging mojos with me as well.

1. I am hopeful for 2011. 2010 has been a very good year so I look forward to a better 2011.  With all my lucky charms and talismans I bought in time for the chinese new year, I hope  the wonders of these will work on me. But of course, I do not rely much on these alone. Faith  is more important and I am holding on to it.

2. To start of by saying that my 2011 is shinier, my work is taking its peak. I’m happy with my job and that’s what matters most. We finished our January events in flying colors. One major thing that transpired is coordinating a celebrity wedding. Yes, we finally did one! So weddings we have planned and coordinated won’t just be gracing all those bridal magazines like Wedding Essentials, Metro Weddings, Martha Stewart Phils and the like but would also be featured in showbiz magazines like Yes, Buzz and Star Studio Magazine! That’s a major accomplishment! Lol! So who’s wedding was it? The very private and beautiful wedding of Oyo Boy Sotto and Kristine Hermosa. Their onsite video are actually posted in Threelogy’s blog.

3. The kids are growing fast. (Sniff, Sniff). Margaux is turning 6 already by March so do you know what it means? Well, I’m already party planning for her 7th Birthday next year. Yeah, working on my plans as early as now and I’m actually panicking already as I need to decide soon already for the venue. Who said birthday party planning cannot happen for a year in advance? Not if I’m the mommy! As being in events company, I’m sure our guests will be expecting more.

4. Bianca, on the other hand is doing good in big school. I knew she could really adjust very well. Oh, they are ending the school year already and I cannot wait for both of them to be performing for the school play as their culminating activity.

5. We have plotted our family travels for the year. We are excited for most of it. To start off, we are flying to Boracay next week. And I am so excited to see the sun, the sand and the beach of course. Not to mention, the extra privilege to stay in Shangrila Boracay. I thought we won’t be able to afford for it but since I am a sucker for sales and discounts, I never miss the chance to  avail the promo when vouchers were sold in Shangrila Greenbelt last year. It will be the second time for the kids. I’m sure they will enjoy it more now since they are bigger. As for me, I am also bigger in size! Lol! That’s the bad news. So I am quite depressed that I can no longer wear the same swimwear I wore in the island some 3 years ago. Now, that’s a major boo!

There’s a pretty number of sharing I still like to post but let’s reserve it next time.  It is an odd hour already and sleepiness has finally knocked on my head after 650 words of this blog post.

No promises as I said but will really try to write my mushing and ramblings (more) often

Margaux would always talk about her friends from school.  She calls them BFFs, lol!  It’s funny that she knows the term BFF already.  As in she literally pertains to them as her Best Friends Forever.  I’m glad that she already have the concept of friendship.  That is actually good.  I want her to continue cherishing her friends as she grows up.  Isn’t great to have friends all the time around you?  I am sure she would be glad to remember their good old times.  I should try to take more pictures of them so we I can even make them an album.  How I wish!

Margaux wore a Muslim-inspired costume while Bianca was in a typical “patadyong baro’t saya”

They are so cute right? Sorry, of course, love your own!

Now, got to finish really my list of things to bring. I am thinking if I will include the riding boots I have Wonder if I could really use one, those are nice dress boots!

Dear Margaux,

You are a God’s gift of love to me and dad. You have become a very good friend to your sister Bianca. You may outgrow my lap but you would never ever outgrow my heart. Sometimes, when i look at you, I can’t help it but I would want to stop the time as I watch you grow. When I sit and stare at you, i can clearly see myself within you. I know in time you would become independent and free but you would remain to be my baby as long as you could be. I know I am not a perfect mom but I am trying my best on all that I do. And everyday, I thank the Lord, for a blessing of a daughter as special as you.

We love you very much! Happy 5th Birthday Margarita Frances!!!!

with so much love,

Mommy

Theme is of course Disney Princess as her favorite.  She specifically requested for it.  She was in a nice pink dress made by her Ninang Mimi of Bumblebee and Company.

I ordered from Shakey’s Katipunan their kiddie party meal which is just appropriate.  The box includes a slice of pizza, 1 pc chicken, a cup of spaghetti, 2 pcs mojos plus a glass of iced tea. Great that they were able to deliver to the school canteen itself so it wasn’t an added errand for me to pick it up.  

Ordered her princess cake from Layers and Layers in Kapitolyo, Pasig. 

It was just a simple celebration.  There was just a cake blowing then eating time.  The lootboxes were distributed afterwards.  Games are actually not allowed.  

More pictures below…

Here are more pictures of Margaux as one of the carnival dancers in their Annual Stage Play.  Again, I’m so proud of my little girl as she performs very well this year.  Better than last year when she was a bit shy.  This year, she practically knows all the dance steps and even the songs.  Not to mention, even the scripts of all the other characters!  I’ll be happy if she would have one of the major roles next year Hahaha, Here I am again, the stage-mother ever! 

These were all taken during their dress rehearsal because cameras are not allowed during the gala performance. 

We are so proud of her!  She’s going to be in Kindergarten already next school year!  And then, she’s a grade-schooler already!

Anyway, enough of my shopping plans. Here’s the little girl in her costume…

in school today. Yes, it is 15-days in advance! lol! Since tomorrow is their last day, she still needs to have a birthday party celebration anyway. She’s very excited too. I just ordered the cake from Layers and Layers which I actually picked up already last night. The food would be from Shakey’s which I already ordered last week. It would just be delivered in school. The lootboxes are all set as well and have been loaded up to the car. We are off to her school in few minutes…
