Hi 5 House Hits 2014

One of our Christmas gifts for Zoe this year is the Hi 5 House Hits concert. We weren't sure whether to have her watch the show this year since the ticket prices have gone up significantly presumably because of the venue. However, we decided to let her watch it but instead of getting three tickets, we just got two. 

The venue this year is at Newport Performing Arts Theater. We got there quite early as we were scared of the carmageddon due to the holiday rush. As a result, we got there at 9am with the show starting at 11am :P 

I liked how organized this year's show was compared to the chaos last year at SM Aura. Because of the disorganized system last year, Zoe got stressed out because of the crowd and got a fever towards the end of the show. At the Newport theater, they allowed people to come in as soon as they opened at 10 as opposed to pooling everyone until just before the show starts. 

Here are some photos.

Our condo unit was finally turned over to us in November. We did a site visit and brought along Philipp Santor of Fraz Works who will do the fit out of the wood works. He had to take measurements in order to give us a quote. Fast forward to two weeks after, the paint job is already done and the first half of the wood works are about to get delivered. Here are some photos of the newly painted unit.

Purple for Zoe's room. I had the painter put white stripes on the left part of the room. The other side is solid purple

Our target move in date is end of February. There are currently some construction on going for the swimming pool and pavillion which are directly in front of our building. The PMO said it will be finished by first quarter next year. 

Trick or Treat 2014 at South Bay Gardens

Zoe graduated from her Gymboree Pumpkin Patch parties this year. I've always wanted her to go through the real house-to-house trick or treat experience and that's what we did this year. My friend, Lainey, invited us over to their trick or treat celebration at South Bay in Sucat.

Zoe Alexa's 4th birthday party

*Late Post*

We celebrated Zoe's 4th birthday with a simple lunch party at home and a school party two days after. 

Her school is quite strict with school parties. It can only be celebrated during their snack time (30 minutes). There should only be 1 solid food and 1 drink, no decorations allowed, and no lootbags too. However, since this is Zoe's 1st school party, I sneaked the Frozen lootbags in :P I also ordered Frozen themed cupcakes to be given to her classmates. 

ISYC Father and Child Coachella at Marikina Convention Center

ISYC held its annual Father and Child Day coachella style at the Marikina Convention Center on August 9. It was loads of fun! The other moms and I agreed that this was so much more fun than the Mother and Child Day activity.
