Paula's Tea Party

It is true indeed that once you become a mom, you'll find yourself drawn to a much different environment. A toy store instead of the usual Techie-store you once loved... Having a blast choosing baby clothes instead of your own, even the idea of getting cute shoes for the little one excites you more now instead of choosing your own. Well, maybe it's just me... or not... (^_^)

My BDJ is literally filled with extra schedules for themed kiddie parties, and mind you, since most of them are themed, I find extra time to get my baby a special costume to go with the occassion. This is what brightens my mood these days.

Kiddie parties. Never thought it could be such fun...my precious Chingching in attendance...

Today, Ching attended a beautiful Tea Party. Paula Antonia's First Birthday Tea Party at Blue Leaf. The event was so chic, so well-planned, you'll even think it's a little extravagant for such a little child. But who cares, I completely understand my friend Loren's vision. A mother would want nothing but the best for her most precious baby. And for Paula's special day, she made sure everything was according to how she imagined it would be... a shabby-chic fun-filled Tea Party with good people around.

The party was brimming with green, orange, pink & yellow colors, cupcakes, candies & sweets, happy smiles, pretty pompoms & flowers with hanging tea cups, colorful pillows, and an array of sumptuous menu lined ahead. Loren & Mak were obviously very satisfied with how the party went on, it was worth every cent.

Ching got her very own cute flower stool as Paula's give-away.

We headed home late as we caught a very late dinner afterwards to celebrate my parents' anniversary.

Looking back at what happened today, I could say, we definitely had fun with the Pastranas.. Looking forward to more parties ahead!!!!
