The little princess is now 4!!
Happy Birthday my little Ayra..
We didnt plan for anything big due to budget issue, since i have resigned and money is kind of a crucial part of living these days..haha..
nevertheless, I want her to celebrate her birth as it is a day of celebration.
for me, for her.
so we decided to hold it at her LC. boy was she excited!
she wanted her birthday theme to be Green. because she is obsessed with her sport's house color.
hahahah. that's a relieved for mommy!
and so I began planning, as usual, for her party.
i wanted more..but. less is also acceptable.
after all, ukur baju di badan sendiri..
we didnt get to watch her cut the cake cos i was at work.
i came a little bit late.
so, here are what the teachers shared with us:
you see how she was forcing herself to smile?
she told us that she wanted to wait for us, but she didnt know how to tell the teachers.
aw..that is sad..
but it's okay we told her.
we'll have another one, a joint party with Amna's. just us family.
The Dress:
Ayra doesnt have a green dress yet.
to make her feel special and in touch with her green theme, i found this beautiful maxi dress
in Poplook for Kids. only RM64.
i sewed the pearls for her to make it more beautiful. otherwise it looks a bit plain.
i got the pearls from Jakel. Rm45 per meter.
but for her drees, i used about 1/3 of it. or less.
Cake:
i have been ordering cakes, each year, with this one lady in Setia Alam.
her name is Ashilah. i got to know her from my bff Azza.
they work together in Maybank.
and she makes delicious affordable cakes!!
her cakes are not too sweet, so that works fine with my family.
it is soft and moist. unlike certain cakes which look pretty but very dry.
urghhh i hate dry cakes. it's like eating sands.
the colors of her cakes are very pretty, and well blended.
her work is neat. and of course delicious.
i like the fact that she is so nearby to my house that transporting the cake is not an issue.
i am a little bit reluctant if the supplier if out of shah alam cos i really do not have much time to waste on travelling. time is an essence and being stuck in the traffic is not an option.
i've googled some pictures of green cakes and got Ayra's approval.
luckily me she didnt demand for anything extravagant.
i dont like fondant figurine like cakes.
the fondant itself is a waste and taste bad. it will end up in the bin and that is a big waste.
(being cermat and thoughtful to the environment ok)
Food:
since the birthday is celebrated earlier (20.11) than her actual birthday (24.11), and the school was also celebrating Childrens' Day and another boy's birthday, i figured there
will be plenty of foods there.
the mommies like to contribute foods and the school itself will prepare satay.
so, i ordered meehun goreng and karipap.
i know my girls love eating meehun and most children love it too, so, yeah, meehun it is.
Party Pack:
now, this is the tricky part.
i had a lot of ideas of green party packs. but again, money.
and snacks. i really dont want to give the children junk foods.
i always throw them away when ever the children got junk food for parties.
it is just not healthy and full of MSG.
a big No No.
i ordered home made green popcorn from my staff. her dad makes popcorn.
and yes he can make a green one.
then we bought a small milo drink.
and few chocolates.
we went to GM Klang and found very2 cheap small puzzles and stickers.
Ayra agreed for those to be in the party packs.
then, we pack them in a brown bag, and i put on a green serviette on top and staple it with a patterned ribbon that i have in hand.
the one with pink ribbon is for the teachers.
and the rest are for the children.
i just whatever crafty things that i have in my crafty box.
(i have a huge crafty box for me to be creative)
i dont have much pictures to share.
was too occupied with the event and eating and being tired.
hahhaah
this is just a simple party.
the fun and thoughts that matter!
Happy 4th Birthday Princess!
