Practical Pebbles

Today marks the second day of my three day Manila stay. What a day it has been.  Medical and license renewal, check. Bonding with classmates, check. Cellphone purchase, check. Baby's eating utensils purchase, check.  Missing my family, check.  Can't wait to see you tomorrow my loves. Thank you to my classmates who accommodated my stay at Manila. I really appreciate it guys! See you three after two years.

Our Little One finally turned one last Sunday (November 2). The family celebrated at Children's Place -where a function hall for parties is conveniently located above a specialty store, here in Tacloban City. To celebrate the milestone we opted for a costume party, since halloween wasn't far behind and no one outgrows playing dress-up. Got the chance to blow the candle while the Little One was busy. Bucky made of boxes hand painted by Mr. P. Inspired by Jake and the Neverland Pirates, a Disney show we always watch, we went all out for DIY. Pinterest and google search were both treasure chests of ideas. Like most new families, we also wanted to make it more hands on a.k.a budget friendly. We did all the decorations from the invitations, table centerpieces, backdrop, stage props, game accessories, loot bags, and balloons. Invitation with burned edges and personalized pirate logo. For the food, Mr. P's aunts prepared the menu with additional hands

I am so excited to finally start this blog!
