We have been planning for Zara’s birthday party for a while, and when we asked her what she wanted to do for her birthday, she recalled my friend’s daughter’s 1yr old birthday party<\/a> in the hotel and she said, “Like mummy’s friend, party in hotel. Got clown one. Got many balloons one.”<\/span>
\nWe were kiam siap (Chinese: Stingy).<\/strike> We did the finances, and thought it would have been better to keep the money saved (from having the party in a hotel or restaurant) in the bank for her. Instead, we have a small party at home, invited just our immediate family members. None the less, it was fun, and the food was good.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The guests : My friend’s kids’ Jensen and Yen Mae, who dropped by in the afternoon to drop off their presents for Zara. Eldest sis’ daughter, Tasha. Youngest sis’ son, the shy Norman.<\/span><\/p>\n

We had Nasi Lemak for dinner, prepared by Tuyam and my sis’ maid KC. Daddy said this can beat any best nasi lemak in town, I would have to agree with him. It’s absolutely delicious. Zara loved it as well, although all she took was nasi lemak with ikan bilis (Malay : little fish or anchovies) and fried chicken.<\/p>\n

<\/a>
\nI ordered a cake from A Piece of Cake, with Zara specifying the design, “Want got cow girl one. Got pony one. Want dog dog”<\/span> This is the cake that comes with a cow girl riding on her pony with her pet dog.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The beautiful and yummy-licious cake; The kids were all waiting to attack the cow girl and the pony while Zara munched away the candies on the cake; Zara busy stuffing herself with the sugar beads and stars on the cake; The cow girl and the pony after the kids’ attack.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

For the album : Our family; My dad with all his grand children; With my in-laws; Zara with her cousins <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

A very happy birthday girl: She loved the part where every body sang Happy Birthday to her; she was scared of the fire from the candle so she stood far away from them while trying to blow them out, and eventually just shouted for help.<\/span><\/p>\n

She had a good time and slept only at 12am, 2hrs passed her bed time.<\/p>\n
