Nick’s 21st Birthday
Big Guy turned 21 this past Saturday. We threw a party and Nick had a blast. Here are a few snapshots of the day:
Party favors…..Theme red solo cups and Thomas the Tank engine, only in Nick’s world!
I made a toast thanking caregivers, therapists, family and friends for their support with Nick (who has Down syndrome and autism) over the years. Nick followed it up by flashing the crowd. Looks like we have some new members added to the “belly flashing club”. 🙂
Chocolate cake, Nick’s favorite…..
New sensory toys from his occupational therapist…..
Cheers and down the hatch! Don’t worry, he didn’t slam the whole thing. Nick’s brother Hank, handed him the last half of his beer. 🙂
It was a great celebration. We are very appreciative of the generosity from our family and friends. Thank you for all the well wishes and touching sentiments. That’s what is in my noggin this week!
