some birdy loves you theme kit

I was going through all our family pictures because I wanted a cd replication for all the kid’s pictures when I realized I haven’t shared our simple dinner table set-up.  This was supposed to be for Sophia’s 3rd month birthday, this theme is called “Some birdy loves you”. It has a very nice color combination of red, pink and black. It looks a lot like Valentine’s Day and since we won’t have any plans of celebrating Vday this year, I decided to just make Sophia’s 3rd month birthday celebration and post Valentine’s day dinner in one.  But my little girl Alyssa was so into Valentine’s day I had to make an impromptu dinner. I did the layout and all that the night before and printed everything as well. I bought brownies, cookies and milk chocolate for Alyssa’s breakfast in bed request, then fried spam and shaped it into little hearts and served it with white rice for lunch. Then I made all these dinner set up just before hubby comes home. I don’t know why Alyssa is so into Valentine’s day but I made it a special one for her. She had a really nice time with all that mummy had prepared for her. Belated HAPPY VALENTINES DAY everyone.
