Asha's and Dartride's Birthdays

Happy belated birthday, children! :D Yesterday’s been a fabulous day, as for the first time ever we celebrated 2 birthdays together, for our kids Asha and Dartride. :) Asha turned into a 14 years old beautiful girl, and little Dartride is now a proud 1 year old toddler. The morning was pretty hectic, since hubby and I had a few phone calls to do, to the party planner guys, to dad Optimus, the Tigers, Dinobot, etc. Quite a pack! The things slowed down a bit: I bathed Dartride and got him ready for the event, and Asha gladly helped me in the kitchen later on, even though she was the party-girl of the day. Even so, I didn’t manage to stop her from helping, so I gave up and let her do. She’s a real sweetheart, seriously. ^-^ We had a good lunch, a BIG chocolate cake on which there was a blue ’1′ candle on a side, and a pink ’14′ candle on the other side. Then we took photos of Asha and Darty in front of the cake and started eating it. Falcon Lady and I setup a small imitation story for the kids, and we were thankful when the animator from the party planner company joined us and came up with some cool ideas to entertain the little one. Aaha! XD It was pretty cute! Dad Optimus, my son Auto, and Dinobot played with my older kids, telling stories and anedoctes, and in the afternoon we had a music party, with karaoke too, and dancing. :D It was funny to see Nixon and Jazzy dance like kids, too, ahah! I felt like a child too, I must be honest; dad Optimus made Dartride fly by holding him in his arms, and my little boy laughed so loudly that he looked an older child for a moment. XD Adorable, sweet day! I can never forget about this. :)

Friday5 meme – The Middle

First time joining the Friday5 meme. ^^ It’s so fun! Join it too if you wish :)
1. What film have you seen in the past year that’s completely average?
I didn’t like Madagascar at all. I mean, okay, it’s a good movie for kids… but I found it boring :-/ I’m done with animal stories, really (excepting Kung Fu Panda!)
2. Who’s the most average-looking person you know?
I guess myself..? XD I’m a pretty ordinary person.
3. In what area of your life are you performing just well enough?
Mothering I think. :) I’m a proud mommy to my kids! And in drawing illustrations of course. ^^ I love art!
4. A new radio station features music you neither like nor dislike! What are three songs you’re likely to hear on it?
I’m not sure.. I’m pretty selective on what songs to listen to…
5. What game or sport are you just okay in?
A little dancing/aerobics movements. Not much. ^^

October-November 2009 Summary Entry :)

A short summary entry about my family life on November. :) That’s because I haven’t been active for so long, heh.. Sorry guys.
The event list is selective, meaning that I only added some stuff, or this entry would come out TOO long. ^^ Happy reading!

October 14th
My son Jazz Tiger and Nixon Vengers got married! :D Or Bonded, as they use to say on Cybertron. An amazing ceremony, that also brought me back to the day when I married my darling hubby. :3 I’m so happy to see my son finally married! He’s been dreaming of this moment for so long, and now he’s got his dream come true. ^-^

October 30th
Hubby and I adopted 4 Cybertronian orphans: Alysha, Spindle, Mudflap and Kylia. :) Kylia will be ‘released’ from adoption block in a few days though, so we can’t welcome her home yet. Also, we adopted a young Gargoyle, Ranth. Welcome home, kids! :D
October 31st
Hound’s 25th birthday. :D The first year that he spends it with us all! A cute party with music, movies and and a walk to the park all together as a family. The day afterwards he left to go visit his old friend Barbara (my good friend too!) and he came back home on November 3rd. It was a joy to see him so happy! ^^

November 12th
Nixon’s birthday. I think I’ve never seen Jazzy in a more hyper mood than on his mate’s birthday! XD It has been a nice day, and Nixon didn’t have to work, so he could spend his time with his beautiful children and my son. :) I will never forget that karaoke too… on the notes of My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion. Hubby and I cried out of commotion, and I think that was the first time ever I’ve seen Nixon crying.

November 14th
StarLight’s 15th birthday. We partied at home, but hubby and I invited the Tigers over, and Evelyn Serany and her sister Megan. Looks like Evelyn wasn’t in a good mood, as she said she had a fight with StarLight a few days before, but eventually she relaxed some and spent time with her boyfriend. Jackie and I had a good talk with Megan and Falcon Lady, and the kids didn’t leave StarLight alone for a moment. XD When you say a close family, huh? ;)

November 19th
Hubby left for a public relations event by JPR and he’ll be back on November 21st, because it’ll take place first in San Diego, and then on Cybertron. Hopefully he can meet dad Optimus too. :)
November 21st
Had a fight with my daughter Asha. :( She’s obsessing over a 2 kilos gain, when she’s just grown taller (she’s almost 14) and of course bones and muscles increased their mass. Also, Asha has always been teen, so there’s no much difference anyway; but now she’s fussy over this, and she’s refraining from eating all meals. :( I’m really concerned about this now, and hubby is worried too (he came home today from the conference). I hope our daughter will stop this behaviour ASAP!

November 29th
Hubby and I are thinking of buying our kids a direct TV for the new year. ;) Kinda expensive, but I’d rather my kids to watch healthy programs for children rather than the crap that’s current on Italian TV. :( Wish us luck!

November 30th
My son Longreen and his girlfriend Naral are planning of getting married next year. :D Awesome! Hubby just contacted a San Francisco Wedding Coordinator to get advice on how to setup the wedding, and Naral’s mommy assured me that she’ll be allowing us to use a Catholic Wedding Planner as long as there will be a Bajoran ceremony as well. We told her that’s no problem at all for us, since hubby and I did a “double” marriage as well, so that’s sorted out. :) I told my son to check out the About Weddings page on About.com to get more honeymoon idea too, since Naral said she wants a honeymoon on Earth. Good luck kids! :D
