It is Sunday night, the kids are in bed with Marlene and I have a chance to reflect on a very nice weekend. We celebrated Aurelia's birthday yesterday, so we were all up early preparing for our guests to arrive. I handled the food - pasta salad, greek salad, coleslaw, hamburgers and hot dogs, while Marlene made the house look festive and clean - no small task! At 2 int he afternoon, the guests started to trickle in. There was Mathilda and her Dad, Clementine from school, Gaby, William and Finley, Tiho, Jake, Aimee, and many others. I served drinks and blasted rock music from the 1970s (perfect for a five year old party...), while Marlene brought the kids and moms up tot he pool. The drinks and food went down well, and after we ate we served a beautiful cake and cupcakes and played various games that Marlene had organized. It went off really well, and it was nice to see that we had made quite a good friends here. I took a nice dip in the pool sometime around 11pm - love it!
Today we awoke late, had some breakfast and headed to the mall - back to the KL routine! We need to pick up some stuff for Aurelia's school and booked ourselves a movie while we were at it. What a pleasure to be the four of use just having fun, without anything much to do. Rowan just came in after a wee pee to blow me a kiss.
Family bliss.
Happy birthday cutie pie! May you celebrate innumerable years of love and affection with family. Baptism ceremony and birthday party of my niece was celebrated at one of the lavish Venues in NYC few days back. Cup cakes and desserts were yummy. DIY decorations were appreciated by all. Lunch and snacks were all of high quality.
