I have a good friend named Tina. Last Sunday, Tina's eleventh birthday. I wanted to surprise Tina with a birthday cake and a small party.

The day before Tina's birthday, my mother helped me make a birthday cake for Tina.

Since it was my first time making a cake, the shape of the cake didn't look great, but it tasted really good.

I also decorated my living room with many cute accesories.

The next morning, I invited Tina to my house. As she entered the living room, I sang 'Happy Birthday' to her.

Tina is very surprised and happy. We also ate my birthday cake while joking and laughing. Happy eleventh birthday, Tina!
