Birthday Party

Aku memang slow  nak update blog. Nak update kat office, keje melambak-lambak, nak update kat rumah, nanti ada orang lain yang tolong sibuk update sekali. Hari ni aku curi-curi masa update sementara bos aku tak ada ni.

Balik ke tajuk utama, my little princess ucuk acam Insyirah had her 2nd birthday party on Friday 28th May 2010, kenapa Friday.. sebab jumaat tu PH Wesak day. Siang tu pulak cousin aku buat birthday party untuk anak dia jugak tapi aku pegi la sekejap makan2 pas tu balik rumah sbb makanan belum prepare apa pun lagi...

Cute kan kek ni? Tempah kat FB je...

Aku seronok bila nak buat birthday party tapi kalau boleh housemate aku tu... ada kek, ada lilin, tiup, pas tu dah, tak yah nak buat besar-besar, but it is less fun for Insyirah kan. I know how much Insyirah loves parties. So no matter how busy I was and how tired I am. I have to do a party for her. (tp ibu dia sebeanarnya yg over, mcm biasa)

Okay, I sent out the invitations a day before melalui FB. Zaman dah canggih kan, FB je la senang. Tapi aku buat jugak la Invitation card tu sendirik & scan to FB jimat stem (save save save).

Kali ni aku agak kelam kabut sikit la sebab semua barang aku shopping beberapa hari sebelum jumaat tu. Party packs, party decoration, barang-barang nak masak, clean the house, semua aku buat last minute. Baju Insyirah pun khamis malam tu baru aku g beli. Sebenarnya kan aku nak buat pyjamas party tau... tapi tak jadi sbb tak diluluskan oleh menteri dalam negeri yak'ni mak aku. Dia kata tak ada sapa yang nak datang pakai baju tido. Tapi sesedara aku semua nya sporting, dorang ok je tapi tu la bila menteri dah bersuara, tak boleh nak kata apa la kan... Last-last aku buat theme purple for mommy & girl, blue for daddy & boy.

Menu hari tu... food is simple as it was mostly family members, jiran & beberapa org kawan housemate je. As usual I am lucky to have my mom help to prepare the food. This time aku buat BBQ, inspired by my cousin yang beriye-iye suruh aku buat BBQ party & mak aku buat nasi lemak & mee goreng so that the guests can have something to eat while waiting for the BBQ siap.

Insyirah was very excited when she saw the cake on Friday morning and she kept saying, “ibu, shi mouse nak, ibu shi mouse nak, kek shi mouse akan” (aku translate kan... ibu nak mickey mouse, nak makan kek mickey mouse,  anak aku mmg suka cakap telabik!) & mana dia tak excited,dia  mmg suka kartun mickey mouse! But luckily she was ok when I told her that she need to keep the cake sampai party start & aku siap tampal peti ais tak kasik dia bukak.

Talking about that night, everything went well. The food was good (nobody complained, so I guess they’re all good), the cake was beautiful, the cupcakes were delicious (tq Lynn!), the guests turnout was excellent, Insyirah was gorgeous and she wasn’t cranky!

Hari tu pulak, kebetulan birthday 2 orang cousin aku, so kitorang pun buat surprise utk dorang sekali.

Honestly, it is very tiring to host birthday parties at home, but seeing how much semua orang especially the kids enjoyed themselves, it was all worth it dan saya memang suka untuk melakukan walau berapa kali pun birthday party!

A very big thank you to everyone yang datang & tq jugak for hadiah-hadiah yang sgt best itu!
