We got an invitation by my sister and as her personal photographer, that her mother-in-law is celebrating her 60th birthday. As my mother is preparing our outfits for January 2, 2021, the overall theme of the party was Hawaiian, or any floral outfit.

January 2, 2021. We left home, and the venue is situated somewhere near the province of Kawit, Cavite.

The party started around 4:00 pm. It's been a while that I have never covered an event after the lockdown. So I decided to get some photos.

^{Aside of taking photos, my nephew did an intermission number for his grandmother. I'm a one proud uncle.}

As the saying goes, age is just a number. The celebrant goes for her 18 roses, and unexpectedly I was selected as a close relative to the family.

The after-party? Well, I haven't seen this around the capital region, and you'll only see this if you're in the province either north or southern parts of the Philippines. They would dance to the tune of Cha-cha.

What a good way to start 2021! And hopefully I can cover other events again from pop-culture conventions, car/motor shows, and especially in Football once everything is back to normal. Happy New Year, everyone!
