Celebrating Isaiah

Isaiah’s birthday party wasn’t fancy, but most of his favorite people were able to enjoy a lovely afternoon with him. 

Isaiah had no clue what to expect or how to react when we told him his gift was outside. He was pretty happy with a new bike! I really should include a picture of the bike we replaced—that week a pedal had literally broken, the seat was duct taped and the tape was falling apart, the chain was completely rusted. He has had lots of fun riding now!

The afternoon included ice cream cake and s’mores. If ice cream cake is your thing, I’ve been using a recipe I found on Pinterest for a copycat Dairy Queen ice cream cake. It’s far more cost effective than buying a cake from Dairy Queen and my family loves it. 

Isaiah had quite a list of food he wanted—all bought. We had Chuck Fil-A for supper and dounuts for breakfast. Shakes from Cook Out and McDonald’s had to be spread out over a week or so. 

I think Isaiah had fun and felt special and that’s all that matters!
