Barney Birthday

First of all, I'm sorry for being an absent blogger for several days. I attended successive events which have kept me away from blogging. I'm back and eager to visit my favorite blogs.

Let me share a fun birthday we attended over the weekend. It was the 1st Birthday of hubby's niece and goddaughter, Yvaine. As you can see, the party theme was Barney and friends.

Cute birthday banner featuring the celebrant and her favorite pals.

celebrant's picture and personal message).

    I attended a 1st birthday party as well recently and I am amazed at how well organized these children parties are nowadays. With personalized giveaways and loads of fun and entertainment in store for both the kids and the adults.

    I guess, we have come a long way from the really simple birthday parties during my youth. Well that was eons ago hehehe :)

    This birthday party must be every kiddos dream. So thoughtfully decorated :)

    Personalized M&M's? That's a brilliant idea! I've seen a christening party where the giveaways were personalized chocolate bars, with specially-printed paper covers.

    @Louann: Hubby's cousin ordered them from the States. I just don't know how much they cost.
