Into the TWOs

We had a small-do for Sara yesterday, her real birthdate is today, 23-Apr-2012. It was a super last minute thing and we only confirmed and decided on the day I was supposed to fly out to Japan. (Which was 2 Mondays ago). I wanted to have a small one among friends and also of course, kids! Sara needs friends! And sadly, she doesn't have real friends at her age... Hehehe. The ones at kindy she's not that close.. but I hope she will learn to have friends there.

So, invites were sent out hurriedly before I left, and also follow up was done by hubby or when I was in Japan, FB-ing everyone. :P We just decided to invite whoever that is in Melaka. And only my aunt's family because she takes care of Sara.

All in all, I think it was pretty much ok, just that it was a bit kelam-kabut because guests didn't come all at the same time, they came staggeredly and we had a time-frame to end by 1.5 to 2hrs time. Overall, I think I was quite happy with the services provided by McDonald's as they were trying to be accustomed to the needs of our guests. And the lady actually handled the kids activities very well! If I have the time next time and when Sara is older, I would probably organise something like that at home. :) I love art and crafts too!

So here are some of the highlights of the day. If you are guest at Sara's party and you have any comments and feedbacks, kindly leave a comment at the end of this post or email me to rachellmc@rocketmail.com.


 The birthday cake. Almond coffee from Yeast bakery. Very nice when it's frozen! A very simple-do compared to Sara's 1st birthday cake. :P



 The birthday gal, happy with her balloons.

 1, 2, 3, throw!


 Cuttting the cake!



Sara says she blew TWO candles yesterday. :)

Yay!

Overall, this little-do cost just a fraction of what we spent last year. And it's not the $$, but we just wanted the fellowship and the kids to have fun. I hoped you all enjoy yourselves! (maybe not you, but your kids!).
