The celebration(s) started off with mommy and vivian's preparations for the class party...
After slaving in the kitchen, mommy came out with a bunch of moist chocolate cupcakes and began icing them up. On seeing the glossed goodies, Vivian tore herself away from her task of preparing all of her friend's giveaways and having a taste test of the treats. But not before... blowing of birthday candle with mommy and daddy.

Just before noon, we went inside Viv's (then empty) classroom and setup the cakes and gifts for her friends. After a short wait, the kids started trickling in one by one hungrily eyeing the cakes as they walked past. (see next post for more details). while it was Viv's day, mommy and daddy also had themselves a treat by seeing viv among her friends and how they were behaving around their teachers.
After school, a somewhat long drive and a quick change, Viv had lunch at her favorite restaurant at City Center... Chilis!! She had her favorite Chicken Alfredo pasta and couple more entrees.
After the heavy lunch (still at City Center), we tried to walk it off by shopping around for Viv's new clothes. Tried looking into a couple of nice shops but couldn't find anything she liked...and then we ended up in Zara. She found several nice size 13 dresses and blouses that were supposedly for the same 13 year aged kids.
Around 4pm, drove off to a nearby mall named Al Bahja. The destination... toys r us!! After consulting with one of her friends from the Bratz and debating with the Hulk on what toys she should get....she sped off with several new Barbie stuff , add-ons to her play kitchen and a large fluffy dog stuffed toy.

After a long drive back to Al-Khwair, which thankfully gave Viv time for a quick nap, we went straight to Turkish house to meet some pinoy friends for dinner around 7pm. We had the usual Turkish favorites... the grilled Hamour fish, Houmous, Arabic bread, baked shrimps and calamares!
With the busy day winding down, Vivian opened a few of her presents from daddy and mommy, Lolo, Lola, Nana and a bunch of her friends!! The perfect end to a perfect day for our (not so) little princess!!
