Fairy Tale Inspired or Pool Party for Debut

It feels good to be back online. I haven’t gone online for four days and I must admit, I missed everything on the net most especially blogging. The last time I was online was Saturday morning then we went to Cainta afterwards to attend my cousin’s debut. They have internet connection there but it’s only the time I can be with my family and relatives again so I chose not to be online because I knew that once I did, no one could stop me from blogging the whole day.

Jhanna, the debutant, was one of my favorite cousins and the daughter of my Aunt who passed away last March. Though we were a bit sad because Aunt Cora was not there to witness her princess’s big night, still the party was filled with colors and laughter.

I love everything in her party; from invitations (though I was hoping she’ll have Smilebox party invitations as suggested) down to her cake and to her gowns. Yes, gowns! She wore three different gowns that night and she just looked as fabulous with each. The make up artist spent four hours on Jhanna’s make-up and hair do.

It was a cute hair style and I watched how the artist did that. I just hope I can apply it to RJ’s hair. And oh, speaking of RJ, my princess was the flower girl. She is so pretty in her ecru dress made from Piña cloth with brown embroidery.

Watching RJ made me imagine how she’ll look like at her own debut. I was wondering if she would like to have the same fairy tale inspired party like Jhanna’s when she approached me and said “Mama, I want a pool party on my debut.” Does it mean hubby and I will be spared from spending for the three gowns and too many decorations? 🙂

I received this bunch of roses as birthday gift from my bestfriend Hazel. RJ love them so much. She hugged and kissed them as if the bouquet is meant for her.

Then she asked for the ribbon. I thought she will use it to tie something but instead she used it as headband. Lol! So the stage Mom dabbed a little orange eyeshadow on her eyelids and asked her to pose. Voila! Retro look…

The Marvels of Medical Scrubs

I accompanied RJ to her pediatrician last week due to her sore eyes. She was not in the mood because she was so irritated by the burning and scratchy sensation in her eyes but her face lit up upon seeing the nurses in their scrubs with cartoon characters. The sight somehow eased her discomfort. It was great to see her smiling even when she’s irritable. That’s the marvel of these stylish medical scrubs. Unlike during the time when I still had my duties in the hospital, the uniforms were so plain so to speak making the ambiance dreary.

Medical scrubs are now worn in different medical facilities worldwide. And if you are looking for one, there is a full selection of Cherokee scrubs to choose from that come in variety of styles and designs. With these fashionable scrubs, you can still look and feel your best while working. You can attend to your patients, run to errands and perform your other duties while being comfortable at the same time. Now that there are also Maternity scrubs available, you can enjoy the comfort of these medical scrubs even if you are pregnant. Maternity scrubs from Cherokee are in flattering styles and available in range of sizes so you can choose the size that fits you best.

Nowadays, I also see people who are not in medical field yet they are wearing medical scrubs because of the comfort it brings. Why not? The material is very lightweight and easy to wash. Plus at the end of the day, all you have to do is change to your regular clothes, place your scrubs in the laundry bin and go home without worrying of the germs and bacteria that you could possibly pass on to your loved ones.

Unique Gift

Hunting a unique gift for a special person is hard. You always exert effort on that. You always want to please and give your loved ones special gifts. What painful is when your gift goes unused. I know and I can relate to this because it happened to me once. I gave something to a special friend and it hurt me when she gave it to somebody else. From then on I make sure to give special persons in my life special gifts. Something that is may be not expensive but is very unique.

 

So I want to share with you one gift that your loved ones will surely love, custom t-shirt. Why? Most people prefer to wear t-shirt. In fact, it can be worn on almost all occasions. It has universal qualities and comfort that make it ideal and if you have it customized it will surely create a lasting memory. This gift goes for everyone, kids, middle aged or oldies.

You can choose different designs showing a persons attitude. Death by t-shirts with slogans or jokes are good gifts. Or, if your special someone loves sports, then you can give them sports t-shirts. You can pattern it or choose design about the sport the person loves the most, be it court sports, water sports, winter, racing, martial arts, etc. Hubby loves basketball so this one is perfect for him.

Believe me, it can enhance the relationship between you and the receiver. They will remember you every time they have to wear the t-shirt.
