I was so proud that I started planning for the boys' joint party since last year because I wanted things to go on without a hitch. Well, I definitely was in for the surprise of my life. The week of the party, everything was set for me--food, decor, venue, host & entertainment, give-aways, cake and souvenirs.
Much to my dismay, 5pm the day before the party, I get a call from my decorator who coincidentally ordered my souvenirs from her supplier. The kiddie stools I that I ordered was a mess. Of course I didn't want to give those away. I truly was near tears because I was so proud of my give-aways since it was something the kids could take home and use and it was not just something that they throw or consume. With very little options, I ran to my pastry maker(Baba Ibazeta) and asked for her help in making a variety of sports ball cookies for my souvenirs. She saved my life because she even had them delivered to the party in the nick of time.
Moral of the story. Nothing really goes on without a hitch. I'm just thankful that the kids were so happy with our host and the party with all the games with their friends. It was a day for them afterall.
Thank you to Sonja Ocampo as well for my beautiful dessert table!
