A Surprise Birthday Party

Last weekend, we threw a surprise party for my best friend, Layla. We had been planning it for weeks. Her birthday was on Saturday, so on Friday night, we decorated the house with colorful streamers and balloons. When Layla arrived, the lights were dimmed, and as soon as she opened the door, we all shouted, “Happy Birthday!” She was in shock at first but then smiled from ear to ear.
We had music, a table full of finger food, and a big chocolate cake. My favorite moment was when she blew out the candles and made a wish. Everyone was in high spirits, laughing and dancing. It was a night to remember!
What did they decorate the house with?

• A) Confetti and flowers

• B) Streamers and balloons

• C) Photos and posters
