Instagram Once A Day.

Am missing so much here.
But not on my Instagram.

I'm thinking where to start again.
Maybe this ones okay.

Be Our Guest ( Planning Travis' 2nd Birthday Party)

He's two now. Okay, 22 days ago, he was officially Two years old. And every day he still amuses us with how he sees the world around him, he can speak 3-4 words, he speaks like a man only with little voice, maybe because the Daddy and I decided not to baby talk him. Whenever we ask him if he's okay, he'll nod and answer "Yah!" 

Now, let me share how I planned their party, I did it for a month, yes, blame the busy Mom in me. 

1. Venue. Barrington Place, Skydeck, Congressional Ave, Quezon City, click here for more details.

    Since we can't fit in our house, I looked for that one place that's new and near our house. So I checked this place and it was available, I immediately booked it for August 12. Yay! Actually I thought of fast food restaurant who doubles as party venue too, but the Husband and I doesn't want a limited two hours of party, who wants that right? So we opted to the place. As you see, we had the full place all to us and our family, relatives and friends. We can dance anywhere. 

2. Dessert Buffet and Cake. SisterArt.

    Here's SisterArt FB Page.

    For all you know Kim and Rica of SisterArt has been my favorite, they've been with my family special event since 2008. There's no event in our household that you won't see SisterArt's artistic and tasteful and yummy pastries, cake and cupcakes. You can see how we build our friendship here, she's a supplier turned friend and Travis' Godmother too. 

     SisterArt made Travis one great dessert buffet with personalized chocolates and water bottles too, isn't that cool?

With us is Kim and Rica's beautiful family. 

3. Party Host, Assistant, Magician and Ventriloquist, Balloon, Mascot. And everything in     between in a party. (I got their Sweet Party Caravan Package) 

   With the help of Ms. Roschelle owner of Sweet Party Memories, I had them all. Big thank for Party planners like them. 

We got his favorite Buzz Lightyear Mascot. 

4. Invitation Design and Printing. 

    April  of  Artisan Design Studio, has been my savior when it comes to invitation design. Check her FB page here: http://www.facebook.com/designsofartisan She designs for his invites, cupcakes toppers, thank you cards and stickers, oh and she printed them out too. 

5. Photobooth. 

   Since the venue has their accredited photobooth, we had iFlick. 

    Details here: http://www.facebook.com/iflicknorth

    Avail of their 4 hours package and their green screen background for more choices of backgound and additional 1 hour photo magnets as our guest souvenirs. 

6. Food.

   Ate Leny's Catering, Ate Leny is my sis-in-law's sister. And I have everything covered. Thanks      Ate Leny. I'm assured that food is perfect. 

Ate Leny is on the left in red.

 7. Photocoverage by Sophia Photography. 

     Visit their FB page here: http://www.facebook.com/sophiaphotography

     Their tandem was the best, so far. They got each guest a solo shots, that's a plus. And captures every laugh and smiles.

8. Cakes and Cakepops by CakeTerrific by Aicel and Sabie. 

    Visit their FB Page here: http://en-gb.facebook.com/CaketeRrific

    

Planning took me almost two months. All smiles and laughter made me realize it's all worth it. 

Thank you to my family, relatives and friends who spent their family day with us. From my family to yours, BIG Thank You. and may God bless us all. 

1, 2, 3, Slide.

Taken last Monday, August 13, 2012 with his cousin, Aaron. 

Don't worry, he's okay after he made that slide (and after I took this pictures) he's used to this slide, place, every weekend we take him here and sometime during weekdays.

Preparing his Second Birthday Party

It's the time of the year again, where we celebrate two birthdays in a day, that's the Husbands and Travis'.

I then made a guide board, thanks to Pinterest,  for making my party planing easier, some may be DIY thanks to youtube.

And since Travis likes Buzz Lightyear. I just focused on it and his colors. 

By now, his turning two, the party wont be that big as the first one, I squeezed my invited to family, relatives and closest friends. Since Travis can play now and understands almost everything that's happening around, I know he will enjoy his special day.

Here's my pinterest board for Travis' second birthday party theme.

Those are my inspirations, I may not have them exactly as shown here, but I'm sure Travis and his invited friends will enjoy the party. And for that I leave it to my party planner, Ms. Roschelle of  Sweet Party Memories. While Kim of SisterArt will be making Travis' cake and Dessert Buffet too. And Aicel of Caketerrific will make cupcakes for guests take home treats, iFlick for photo booth, and Sophia Photography to capture every smiles we all share.

Well, I still have 2 weeks and 6 days to finalize everything! Whew! I can do this! Wish me luck!

Great Sunday everyone! 

Bye, June!

How was your weekend? Hope you all had a great time. My little family goes on a roadtrip to Tagaytay and stayed overnight at Summit Ridge Hotel, where everything was fantastic, the weather, the view and your family with you -- Perfect! 

Since Travis saw horses around, he just have to ride one. Good thing weathers so nice to us. 

Comes, the morning after.

Just before we head home, we won't miss this spot.

And with that ends our (last) weekend of June. 

Now, we should hug July as it comes, and forever be thankful to Him. 

BEST DADDY

Here's my greeting post last year, and today we couldn't thank them all enough. 

Dads are the best! I can attest to that. 

   

Happy Father's Day to all the Dad's out there!

Five Years and More!

We have forever to spend with, so we're enjoying every second, minute, hours, days of it.

I wanna thank everyone who've been part of US. Especially my best friend / ex-boyfriend and now Husband Jason.

I can count 5 more lifetime with him. Am so blessed.
