An Awesome Birthday Party



Happy 1st Birthday to my cousin Nora's lovely twins: Suhail & Aisha who just turned 1!! We were invited to their Birthday party yesterday & our kids had the BEST Birthday Party ever!



There were clowns (not the scary-looking ones with the red nose but young cool dudes with oversized shades giving out little balloons in shapes of animals & flowers), Great party packs

(Adlina got a Hello Kitty party pack with lots of stuffs in it including a Barbie wallet), 2 HUGE bouncy castles (even Mama bounced in it - not for very long though as I didn't want to flatten the thing!), cotton candy & popcorn stalls, face-painting, a tattoo booth (Hakim had a big Spider tattoo on his arm, Adlina had a flower & a butterfly on her cheeks & Anas had a lizard on his hand),

stage performances by professional young dancers, a magic show by a funny magician, LOTS of food at the buffet (roasted lamb, mini pizzas & burgers, colourful cupcakes, ais kacang, fresh strawberries & fruits dipped in a chocolate fondue - just to name a few) & best of all: there was a Lucky Draw at the end of the Party!



And... (drumroll please...) We won a NINTENDO WII!! UNBELIEVABLE! The kids were ecstatic! Yes, we are one of those people who are never lucky at lucky draws & when the numbers were called (must have been about 30 consolations prizes), none of our numbers appeared (as expected). Then came the 5 grand prizes, and we couldn't believe we WON the 2ND PRIZE!! Yaayyy!! (The 1st prize was a PS3 - but Adlan said that the Nintendo Wii is better.. heehee..).



As soon as we came home, Adlan immediately fixed the Wii to our TV upstairs & even Papa & Mama tried it out. It's like virtual reality, you have to move to play it & the sensors will sense your movements. Quite fantastic. We all had a go at some Sports & I was totally hopeless at baseball. Did a little bit better at boxing (!). Anas was quite good at Golf. Papa hit some homeruns at baseball. Adlan was of course good at everything (selalu main PS2 kan..). Hakim's forte is baseball & Adlina got so many strikes at bowling! Hakim & Adlina printed out a schedule for the Wii so that everyone can have a fair go. It's loads of fun!




To dear Nora & Tan Sri, Suhail & Aisha, Thank you so much for a WONDERFUL party! We all had a fabulous time. :-D

Dilla,
Wow nintendo wii, dasyatnya. You all are lucky. Birthday party ni macam company annual dinner aje, siap ada lucky draw.
I myself tengah wonder to get a wii at home kononnya nak exercise, especially nak try wii fit where you can do yoga. Still havent really made up my mind. So bila u dah pandai ber wii, you can tell me if u like it or not.

Hi Kak Shaz,

Thank you so much for dropping in.
Yes, the kids are still gaga over the Wii.

Actually the Boxing is quite good exercise. Rasa my upper arms & waist cramping after the Boxing.. (dah tua..)
