Today is my little sister’s 18th birthday. For her first act as an adult, she got a library card. She’s so excited to have it!
Since she has to work tonight, we decided to do cake and ice cream with presents yesterday. Our ice cream was all gone so we went to Baskin Robbins to get ice cream cones. The kids loved it. Holly and I were disappointed in the Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup ice cream but the Snickers is awesome.
While I was running an errand to Salt Lake, Holly made a cake that we consumed later in the evening. Holly and Emma decided to throw some trick candles on it for fun which proved to be the highlight of the “party”. Chelsea blew them all out then flames reappeared. No matter how much blowing out of the candles took place, they kept relighting. There was so much smoke in the kitchen that I was afraid that a smoke detector was going to go off. Holly laughed herself silly at it all and I had fun watching all of the events unfold.
As for the presents, we got Chelsea a Batman DVD that she’s been wanting and my mom got her some clothes. Emma even got into the gift giving by making a rainmaker using Cheerios and a cardboard paper towel tube. All in all, it was a great night. Everybody had fun and Chelsea seemed to have a happy birthday.
