On Yena and Yani's first birthday, we held the reception at Chowking and that's also our plan for Yllac's baptism and first birthday. However, the store manager at Chowking wasn't accommodating with my request (would rant about her somw other time) so we decided to hold the reception to Jollibee or any place bigger than Chowking. A perfect timing when we learned about the Bakhita Hall at Canossa, with only Php150 per hour and a huge room to accommodate 12 round tables with 8 chairs, 10 kiddie tables with 4 chairs, and 2 long buffet table, i know this will be our favorite venue from then on. Not to mention we can usethe soace outside for our photobooth and ice cream cart plus free use of chairs!
The day was equally memorably fun and tiring since we did not get any catering services. And there are a lot of people to thank for, as the event wouldbt be possible without their help. For our cooke, we have my auntie and mrs refugio. For the catering needs, i have to thank my mother for her catering supplies. For tito mark and tita peng for our official photogtapher. For customeyes for photobooth. Kuya the ice cream man, who's very accommodating with the kids endless request of ice cream. For projecthappiness for yllac's superman cale. For damolo's party needs and for our relatives who lend a helping hand before during and after the event. We are so grateful. This we will not forget.
Most of all thank you to our friends who went all the way to Cavite just to spend the afternoon with our kids. I am so touhed with the gestures. Thank you to my mother and mother in law for helping us with the guests. I wonder how we will be able to survive the day without all the help from our family, relatives and friends.
