Her Wish Was Our Command
Conversation over dinner last Saturday:
Me: Saan tayo bukas (Abby’s birthday)?
Hubby: Ikaw. Kahit saan.
Me: Tokyo Steakhouse na lang. Dun naman tayo palagi pag may special occasion.
Hubby: Puwede
Abby: Japanese again?
Me: You don’t want sushi?!
Abby: No.
Me: What do you want to eat?
Abby: Pizza.
Me: What do you want to do tomorrow?
Abby: Go to Chuck E. Cheese.
And so she had her way. It was her birthday anyway, giving her veto power over her parents’ food and activity choices. It came out cheaper, too! Hee hee. Besides, our ultimate goal was for her to have fun. Close to three hours at Chuck E. Cheese’s spells fun all right! Even for Hubby and me. ;) 80 game tokens had a lot to do with it. :D
Every bit the picture of a happy birthday girl.
Obligatory father and daughter pic.
And the obligatory mother and daughter “seeing double” pic.
Here’s the obligatory slide show. :D
In the evening, we partied with our Austin family, not at our house but at Bet’s (my dear friend). :D Between Bet’s three boys and her sister’s three girls, it was an instant party! We took care of the noodles, roasted duck and cake. Bet took care of the baked chicken and her 12-year old niece, Winona, took care of another dessert. Hubby, Abby and I were glad we ended the day with them. We had loads of fun and laughter as always.
L-R: Jezie, Winona, Milo, Abby, twins Mico and Miyo, Ren
Hubby and I joined the picture with Abby and our adopted pamangkins.

Two more days before Abby’s week-long birthday celebration finally draws to a close. Tomorrow, she’ll have a small party, to which she invited her classmates. We’re all excited already.
And another fun-filled weekend awaits.
Have a wonderful weekend, y’all! :D
