I remember the birthday plans used to be a bit more extravagant. Now they just kind of happen or evolve. The one constant is Hard Times cinnamon rolls.
This year Delsie got a baby.
She decided to go swimming. We were only there for 45 minutes when we got kicked out for 'sanitary reasons.' We decided to wait it out and keep swimming. But the second time it happened, we just got out of dodge.
It came as no surprise that our birthday girl wanted to eat at McDonalds. Try as some people might to persuade her, we ended up eating there.
The kids cashed in their attendance coupons to get fries and sundaes for everyone.
We combined a family party and get together at Tracy's on Sunday. The girls had so much fun making the cake. It was a group effort.
It turned out pretty good. Not perfect by any means but they were much happier with the outcome and I didn't have to worry about it.
Since Delsie's the youngest Hillman grandchild, there's no shortage of older kids to dote over her. Her absolute favorite is Sydney. They were all so excited to watch her open gifts. The best one was a butterfly that the Jensen's gave her.
All of the kids circled around and were mesmerized by it.
