Happy Birthday Kyle!!!

For Kyles 21’st birthday I wanted a big day of adventure & Kyle was a blast. I cant believe he ever had a hot birthday & we didnt get into the pool at all but I am not seeing any pool pictures! We picked Mim up first thing. Then we went to Dutchway to Surprise Miriam, Kyles Leader at the Care Center. From there we went to Cherry Crest Farms where Shalyn was working. She took us on a smaller version of the maze and was such a great guide! We also bumped into Mary, one of Kyles school teachers, and her daughters. Next stop was the Bird-In-Hand farmers market & then last but not least a trip to Costco where Kyle totally enjoyed the yogurt, although he took his sweet time to eat & a lot of it melted!! Such a fun day!!!

We are so thankful for Mim and that she enjoys adventure too!!

I remember feeling dissappointed last year on Kyles birthday. When the kids were little they insisted we have cake for kyle just like we did for them. It had to be a party. As he got older & they moved away, I spent the last several birthdays on adventures of some kind. In 2022 his birthday fell on a Wednesday so I didn’t plan anything because I knew he would be with Mrs D & he loved Wednesdays with her so I left it that way. I brought him home and went to the pool a bit, then dressed him and got these pictures. I felt disappointed that we hadn’t celebrated him more but also knew it really was ok with him to just sit in the basement with dad that evening so again didn’t plan otherwise. I had no idea it would be our last birthday with him and no idea I was taking pictures that we would use on his funeral picture.
