Mommy Bloggers Philippines Christmas Party 2017

The last time I attended a Christmas party was in 2012. Yes, five years ago. And I think the heavens heard me when I was blessed to attend 3 parties this year. One of those is the Mommy Bloggers Philippines (MBP) Christmas Party.

Since I've joined this community in early 2014, I have been blessed to have an online community that helps me not just by being a blogger, but as a woman. I consider them my online sorority and if an opportunity comes for me to be with these amazing ladies, I'd grab 'em.

I have dreamt of joining the exclusive and intimate MBP Christmas party for years. I did not sign-up for the first two years because I had no one to leave the kids with. And in 2016, when I finally could because Z was already manageable (in short, kaya nang alagaan ni Hubby mag isa), I was too late for the sign-up. Dami talaga namin gustong makasama just imagine we are more than five hundred members.

So when I signed-up and was chosen this year, I was elated.

The intimate party was held last December 4 at the Vanilla Cupcake and Bakery along Mother Ignacia Avenue in Quezon City. I loved the venue as the place was perfect for the In Bloom theme this year.

It was a casual and relaxed party with the moms, a great break for us to catch up and make chika. Literal na, raffle-lang-ang-pahinga mula sa pakikipagkwentuhan. There was so much to talk about that the three hours was not enough to spend it on one table. I was not able to table-hop and had a few photos only dahil busy sa pag chika.

The sponsors were so generous that there were a lot of items raffled off. I won twice, by the way.

Just some of the items raffled off. Ang dami!

Thank you so much Pampers for making this get together possible!

Sorry, I was so hungry that afternoon that I was not able to take photos of the appetizers. The food at Vanilla Cupcake was so good simut sa sarap yung plate!
