Katie's birthday was August 18th, but Victoria thought it'd be nice to have a late birthday party here in Mengzi.
Dave, another American teacher here at Hong He University, made an amazing Butterfinger cheesecake since it's Katie's family tradition to have cheesecake for birthdays and since cheesecake in China is always a special treat. He made the Butterfinger crumbs on top in the shape of a basketball for Katie.
So delicious!
For part of my birthday present to Katie, I got her a few bike accessories since we plan on buying bikes soon to get around in Mengzi. I got Katie a bugle horn (so much louder than the Chinese bike bells, which will be useful for not getting run over!), a bottle holder that can attach to her bike, and a personalized KATIE license plate (from Indiana! Ha . . .). The Rices kept my "Bike-It-Right" theme going and got Katie a gel-cushioned bike seat, spoke lights, cards and clothespins to clip on her wheels, and a heavy-duty bike lock. Now she's just missing the actual bike!
