Beansprouts 6th Birthday !

Six Years Ago
Estevan was 1 1/2 running around Beansprouts,

having naps in the back, testing out all the toys that came in,

and could not see over the counter.

Now he likes to run the computer program,

open the door for strollers

and help his mom choose next seasons boys collection.

What started out as bright idea at 4am, turned into a wonderful dream.

Thank you to all the customers and little visitors

who make Beansprouts such an enjoyable place to be.

We both still love spending our days at Beansprouts.

THANK YOU !

Join us this Saturday, May 30th 11-6pm
to celebrate Beansprouts' 6th Birthday!
With a huge sidewalk sale, crafts, face painting, and more!
