Catching up with Lost Time.

It has been a while. Sebenarnya banyak yg nak di coretkan tetapi masa tidak membenarkan. I have been busy and by night too tired to even to think. I just wanna sleep and sleep.

Where should I begin...

SHAKIEL'S BIRTHDAY - May 20, 2010.



It was a small occasion which we had it at his school so that he can celebrate it with his friends. Just a cake and birthday song. This round I did not go all the way like the previous year. I guess since he has lots of friends and quite popular at school so why not have it there, anyhow, I was not up to a huge celebration.

SHAKIRA'S BIRTHDAY - July 6, 2010.

A piñata is a brightly-colored decoration made from either a clay container or cardboard shape covered with papier-mâché. The container or cardboard shape were meant to be broken forcefully with poles and sticks, so the contents spilled to signify abundance or favors. Piñatas are believed to have originated among the Aztecs, Mayans, and other native peoples of Mexico. Information gathered from Wikipedia.

Since last year Shakira had a quite birthday, this year we went to the full length. Why I said that was because Shakira requested a PINATA! A Poney Pinata, to be specific. Too much of Dora The Explorer and Handy Manny!

Ayah said, "If my daughter wants a pinata, my daughter will have one!" He was actually immitating Kimora Lee Simons fabulous lifestyle. Indeed Shakira had her pinata, not one but two!

Mummy made this - A SUN pinata.
I guess searching for ideas in the NET, really helped me a lot. I really cannot build a poney so I settled for a SUN. I figure it should be a simple task until I started with the project. But all ends well and the birthday girl was not allowed to see the end result until the party day. We had the celebration in Ampang, where her grandfather and other cousins lives.

Ayah made this. Ayah was more adventurous. The poney he has planned in mind did not turn as planned. It looks more like a goat! Hehehe...again, all of our efforts was a success and most importantly our princess enjoyed her special day.


Birthday cake. It was a double birthday celebration for Shakira and Nabila.


It took me 6 days to complete the pinata. Mula mula memang bersemangat bila dah nak habis...lembab pulak. Sampai tahap nak give up pun ada. Tak pa la...this time only ya, baby. No more pinata please!
Main course was steam-boat. It was a good turn out and the girls had a good time.
