yes spoonie she got lots of toys and cash!!!

but it's never easy to organize a big celebration...need to have food taste a week before...need to see that all materials needed for the party are complete especially the tables & chairs, need to know the motif & color coordination, need to confirm visitors 2 days before...need to follow up the pastry shop for the cake...need to pack giveaways for adults & for kids..duh it's very tiring...but I enjoy organising kids party...:tlaugh:

stonston,

if in Chalet i think there is not enough space. Yeah i think it's better in one of the function rooms of a hotel so you can decorate & more spacious.

Way back in Phil. I really rented a party room to celebrate alexx 1st b-day.

my Filipina helper also told me to have it in hotel...n her bday is jus a few days after my boi's!! she's v excited abt celebrating my boi's bday too!

my hb decided either hotel or restaurant it shall be...now checking out packages n pricing....expected turn out will be same or more than bb full mth since family alone already 100+ pple....plus by then alot of our single frens already married n will bring spouse....

btw, my helper is quite 'pantang'....so any idea wot types of gifts we should avoid giving her?
