Greetings friends of @motherhood, a few weeks ago I wanted to share with you what was the birthday number 3 of our princess, despite the difficult situation that our country is going through, there are always ways to have a good time and share with our families those moments full of joy, happiness and peace. Our little girl was very happy that all her cousins, grandparents and relatives were celebrating her birthday with her, since she knew that it was the reason for the celebration.
Normally I always plan well in advance, however this year has been overwhelming because of so many situations that were happening to us, among them, the move, which has been quite exhausting and generates a lot of expenses, and until the last few weeks I was still doubting whether to celebrate it or not. On the other hand, although I am not an expert in making birthday decorations or arrangements, I had been watching tutorials on how they were made in case I decided to do the feast. And the last week we got down to business and started buying pretty simple but meaningful things with the birthday motif that my daughter likes.
Planificación de cumpleaños básica | Birthday planning basics
1: Los invitados. una lista de invitados estimará los gastos a realizar, en mi caso, además de los niños cuento el número de padres y posibles adultos que puedan asistir, de esta forma los cotillones se planifican en función de los niños y la merienda en función del número estimado de personas.
2: La decoración y el espacio. como ahora están muy de moda los globos, también me apoyé en los tutoriales para hacer una hilera de ellos con sólo un paquete de 50, además de unos globos metálicos que sirvieron para decorar la mesa, y una piñata hecha con material reciclado, sólo una caja forrada con papel e imágenes del motivo de la fiesta por ambos lados. Particularmente me encanta hacerlo en el parque de mi ciudad porque simplemente la naturaleza no necesita decoración y tenemos las distracciones que ofrece el propio parque, siempre me ha parecido el mejor lugar para fotografiar el evento.
3: La comida. Esta sesión es según las posibilidades de cada persona, y lo que pueda cubrir nuestros ingresos, y lo divido de la siguiente manera. Tarta, dulces, salados, bebida incluida (hielo, vasos, bandejas para servir, servilletas y utensilios para lo que se va a consumir y cortar la tarta).
1: The guests. a guest list will estimate the expenses to be incurred, in my case, in addition to the children I count the number of parents and possible adults who may attend, in this way the cotillions are planned according to the children and the snack according to the estimated number of people. 2: The decoration and space. as balloons are now very fashionable, I also relied on tutorials to make a row of them with only a pack of 50, plus some metallic balloons that served to decorate the table, and a piñata made with recycled material, just a box covered with paper and images of the reason for the party on both sides. I particularly love to do it in the park of my city because nature simply does not need decoration and we have the distractions that the park itself offers, it has always seemed to me the best place to photograph the event. 3: The food. This session is according to the possibilities of each person, and what can cover our income, and I divide it as follows. Cake, sweets, savory, beverage including (ice, glasses, serving trays, napkins and utensils for what will be consumed and cut cake).
Nota final | Fine note
Ask for help even if you can and know how to do everything, and much more when your time is short, so you don't stress so much and carry less burdens. For example, in the case of the cake, I had many illusions of making it but I was busy with other things so I asked a family member to make it for me, and what I did was to decorate it. Another important note is to write down absolutely everything you plan to do and do not leave out any detail, this helps you stay focused on not forgetting anything, and the result was as expected, we enjoyed a nice, simple and family celebration.
