On n’s actual birthday, we celebrated as a family, at home. We tried to duplicate the ice cream nachos from Farrell’s that he loved so much last year.
For his birthday party, he invited a small group of friends and we went to BrewBakers in Huntington Beach for a root beer and pretzel party.
The place is quite small, and there was another large party scheduled right before us. There was too much “down time” for my liking, but it all worked out in the end. Here the kids are rolling out their pretzels.
Next came the brewing of the root beer!
They had the kids play “kick the keg”.
Next we were shown how to bottle the root beer.
Finally, we sang Happy Birthday and ate skateboard-themed cupcakes that I made for the occasion.
We let the kids enjoy some of the root beer at home. It was really good, probably the best I have had. The flavor had a lot of depth. I’m still having a hard time accepting that n is really five years old!

That sounds like a really good birthday party. I am turning 30 in a few months and I would be into a pretzel and root beer party too! haha
