the little man’s third birthday celebration

Mommy + Me, birthdays, occasions, Jared, Jared's nook, mum's thoughts

It was no easy feat to throw a birthday bash, may that be for a group of 40 people or 80, but it was something you’d like to do all over again if only for the precious look on the birthday celebrant while his party is in progress! ^_^

I know it has been about 2 weeks since the little one’s birthday celebration at McDonald’s but I have not been free enough to tell you all about it, except for the quick post we have down at Jared’s Little Corner. I’d say that sans the little hitch, like Jared’s tantrums {due to the annoying loud music, which he is not too fond of} + the little mishap about Jared’s gifts + the piñata {the crew forgot to give us the present which was originally included in the package + they also forgot to bring out the piñata during the party, that we have to go back + get them}, we actually had a wonderful simple party where everyone enjoyed!

The little ones had a wonderful time playing the games + dancing, not to mention taking photos, with Birdie + Ronald, who shared the special day with us! The little man was his usual playful self when we arrived to the party venue, but given that he’s not been down to take his afternoon nap, by the time were starting the party he was already cranky + as grumpy as an old man! It was a good thing everyone is present so we took turns carrying + soothing him.

Our little Woody + Buzz cake also stole the show + I cannot thank sis Iris enough for this wonderful creation + for the set of Toy Story toys she’d thrown in with the cake + cupcake package! ^_^

Time does fly quickly, the 2-hour party was over soon + my little man is officially a 3-year old! We thank everyone who went out of their way to join us in this momentous celebration, especially for those who had to travel far just to get to our far-flung city. More than your gifts, it was the time you spent with us on this special day that made it all the more special + which warmed our hearts even more!

of garages + getting a family car

cars
a roller shutter garage door is but one of the things you have to worry about when you plan to get your own car

Buying your own car might just be anyone else’s biggest goal in life. Who does not want to have the luxury of having a car at your disposal + enjoying the comfort of going to just about anywhere you fancy at the time you wanted to. Simply bliss, right? Of course some say it is fairly easy to purchase a car or a van big enough for one’s growing family. You find a reputable agent, withdraw the needed amount for down payment + let your bank handle the rest through your pre-approved car loan! Easy-peasy!

Not everyone would agree, though, + nearly not everyone can afford to pay for a down payment, much more get car loans from banks approved! It would take a few more years for an ordinary employee working in a reputable company with just above-minimum salary, for example, to save enough for a 10% down payment. On top of that, you also have to worry about other car-related issues that might just crop up once you decide to buy your own car including car insurance, driver’s license, + if you happen to not have one of those garages equipped with a roller shutter garage door nationwideltd.co.uk {like the one photographed above} on standby, you also have to worry about parking + parking fees, too! You cannot simply park your new car outside your house where it can attract the attention of passersby, or worse car-nappers or car-jackers! Add to those concerns the cost of car maintenance, oil + gas prices, as well has toll fees!

Having said all that, it is actually best to plan your car purchase very carefully. If you think the advantages outweighs the disadvantages + the problems that might come up along the way, by all means go for it! Getting a family vehicle, is after all, one of the best gifts you can give to your family + yourself!
