Heartful Celebration


This is what happened to us today: a double celebration for SJ's 3rd birthday and EJ's Dedication Day since he is 3 months old.  Since last week, I have been busy planning for the party and keeping myself occupied with crafting for the preparations.  It was so tiring, but I am happy making all these things to bring joy to everyone.  It could have been easier to throw a party at a restaurant, but it would be too expensive for us to afford.  That is why we organized this party on a budget, but the outcome is beautiful and has made the whole family happy.


As I mentioned, I had a week of preparation.  I will admit that without another helping hand, I won't be able to make all this possible.


I began working on this pompom craft to bring color and art to the glass window.  I decided to decorate our party with orange, green, and yellow- the celebrant's favorite colors.


My special thanks to Zarah for the help with the memo pads and the prints in the crafty pen holder.

 I don't own a cupcake tower stand yet. I wanted to make one, but I couldn't start the project. This party motivated me to finally complete it.



I used colored crepe paper to make flowers for decorations.

Preparing for the day took a lot of effort beyond just my regular work.  Seeing my children happy and excited for the party today made all the hard work worthwhile.
