I would have wanted a simple celebration for her birthday. After all, she’s just turning nine this year – not really a special number to hold a grand birthday. And besides, we didn’t plan to hold her birthday on a weekend – so it would just be a simple get-together with maybe some neighbors and her friends as guests. But it didn’t turn out as planned! Because Inang decided to take her entire brood from BP and even borrowed a jeep to ferry all of them to our small abode in Bulacan.


For sure, our planned food budget went awry that day and we had to make some major adjustments and bought additional food just to accommodate all of them. In fact, our house felt too small and too hot because we couldn’t seem to fit all of them inside!!! But it sure was fun!!! Tiring because we had to do all the cooking but fun all the same! The choco fountain was the hit of the show and the teens took turns drinking Boracay rum under the hot afternoon sun, whew! All that was lacking is a beach to dive into and it would have been perfect. Of course, I would’ve been much happier if the hubby was were here to tend to his relatives but he can’t go on leave today, so we just held the party without him.
