A Birthday to Remember
This weekend was my birthday, and we celebrated downtown with a fantastic party. We organized a contest for the best dance moves and everyone joined in. The music was loud and the moves were terrific. All my friends danced until they were exhausted, but their smiles were huge!
But, there was one small problem. The cake we got from a downtown bakery was awful. It was supposed to be chocolate, but it didn’t taste right. We all laughed about it – a funny memory from a great night.
Even with the cake trouble, my birthday was amazing. We were all tired from the contest and dancing, but it was worth it. The party downtown was the best way to grow a year older!.
