David William: 1st birthday party

December 5, 2009
Valle Verde 4 Clubhouse

I have to admit that sometimes I still do miss working in a regular office. I don't miss the stress of dealing with the bosses, or the flourescent lights that gave me headaches, or the sub-zero temperatures (both from the A/C and from other people.)...But I do miss the chismis, the "good mornings", the "water cooler chitchats". The human interaction. Although I totally love my job right now, it can get really lonely during the week when I work in my home office. Alone. Five long work days without human contact.

This is why I love the Internet. It's my window to the world. I especially love YM and Twitter because they provide me with my daily dose of friendly human contact.:) Neva is one of the friendly faces (or names?) that I constantly see on my Twitter page (Follow me if you're on Twitter!).  I have worked with her before when I photographed David's baptism almost a year ago, but ever since, because of Twitter and her blog, I feel like I've gotten to know her more personally. So, when I saw her again on David's party, it was like we were old friends.:D

Oh, yeah. This entry was supposed to be about David's party! Well, all I can say is, it was fun, the food was great, and the details were beautiful! If you want more details though, just drop by ManilaMommy.com and get the lowdown from Neva herself.:)

Meanwhile, here are some of my favorite shots from the party.

One of my favorite party planners Jhoanne Alon of Polkadots Events did the balloon and stage decorations.  This was a copy of the cute invitation and Neva asked Jhoanne to base the stage backdrop on its design.


And this was the stage backdrop that Jhoanne made based on the design of the invite!






The lovely centerpieces were provided by the caterer.


We took some family shots before most of the guests arrived.













Cute and colorful cake ensemble!







It was my first time to watch Jiggles the Balloon Lady.  She makes pretty incredible balloon designs!

Everyone had fun!





Neva looked happy.:)


The candle-blowing...





Everyone wanted to take photos of the birthday boy!
