Ciara's actual birthday was on October 24th, but we finally had her birthday party last Saturday. As she started school again just a few days before her birthday, I thought that we should wait for awhile so that she could invite any new friends that she made in her class.
For the party, we hired Cristina Vacas from
Mis Dulces Pastelitos to come and do a cupcake decorating workshop for the girls. Cristina is the girlfriend of Socorro and Amerigo's son. Socorro showed me her website a few months ago and I have had the opportunity to eat some of her cakes so I knew that she did really good work. Each girl got to decorate 4 cupcakes and learned some decorating technics. They all did a fantastic job, and in the end everyone's cupcakes looked professionally decorated. They each got a fancy box to take their cupcakes home and a certificate.
I think that the party went really well. The girls had fun and it was a great opportunity for Ciara to socialize with some of her classmates outside of school.
