Brooklyn celebrated her 5th birthday while we were out in California in June. We spent the first part of the day at the beach, and then we had a fun family "surprise party" for her that evening. Before her birthday Brooklyn told me that she wanted to have a surprise party and told me all of the elements that were needed for it: Balloons, streamers, party hats, presents, pizza, soda and cake. Grandpa and Jacey took care of the decorating, I made her a soccer ball cake, and the guys went out to get the pizza and soda. As you can see, she got lots of fun presents and loved being able to spend her birthday with Grandma and Grandpa, Michael, Jeff, Amy and Austin. She is such a fun and precocious girl and we love having her in our family! Happy Birthday to our Brookie-Tookie!
