Party at our House
Written by on July 18, 2009 – 1:16 pm -Everything’s already set for the party to be held next week, my SIL will be hosting a party for her office mate who will be leaving and transferring to another company. There will be 25 people coming over, and so everyone’s busy trying to fix things around the house. They decided that they will be using the garden since it was pretty large enough that they could all fit in. Not to mention that the ambiance is pretty nice since it has a little pond in there, perfect place to party with.
DH did the trimming of the grasses as it is quite unpleasant to the eyes already, he told me that it was here late mom that maintains the beauty of their garden’s when she was still alive. Her mom loves orchids and bonsai trees and would even hire services with the likes of those by the boston landscaping wherein it would really get attentions of their visitors. No one beats the perfect touch up of a landscape design. Oh well, those were the days! with everyone’s’ busy schedule right now it is quite impossible to maintain its beauty just as before. But we are trying now, especially that there will be a party.

Tomorrow, I am off to find some Promotional Gifts that my boss asked me to canvass for their restaurants’ business upcoming anniversary celebration. There are just too many good stuffs to choose from, but I need to find the cheapest yet has good quality items that would last for quite sometime. It’s a good thing that I have found anypromo.com while searching the net as they offer lots of products that are more eye catching. I am now getting confuse on which to choose. lol!
