Brooklyn's actual birthday is September 2nd, her party was planned for Sept.4th, a Saturday: so, on the second, we had cake and ice cream at home.
Of course, Jacob made creative use of her birthday balloons . . .
The day of her party was beautiful; sunny and 78 degrees, so almost everyone was there to enjoy and celebrate her day.
