Our Brooklyn Grace turned 5 on December 18, 2008. But because Sean and Rosie left early for Ontario, we didn't have time for her birthday until January. She and her friend, Myaleah, decided it would be fun to have a joint birthday. So the planning began. We chose a "Winter fun" theme, complete with tobogganing, a bonfire, an outside hotdog roast, snowman cupcakes for dessert and hot chocolate. It was sunny and snowy and cold and lots of fun.

We drove to this great farm nearby to toboggan and on the way, one of our vehicles got stuck. When we got it unstuck and arrived to the farm, the local dog ate an entire plate of our snowman cupcakes and a package of hotdogs before we even all got out of the cars. And on the way home, there were a number of other "stuck in snow" incidents. But the birthday girls and their friends had a great time. Although Brookie has already asked for a swimming party next year.
