Brittany Aldean said she’s a “blessed bonus mama” as she shared a glimpse of the 18th birthday party she threw for stepdaughter and “bonus kiddo,” Kendyl.
Brittany and her husband, country superstar Jason Aldean, hosted a birthday celebration for Kendyl. Aldean shares Kendyl and her sister, Keeley, 22, with his ex-wife. The country star is also a father to Memphis, 7, and Navy, 6, whom he shares with wife Brittany.
“One thing about Kendyl is she loves simplicity. She doesn’t want anything crazy, over-the-top. It’s very hard for me,” Brittany said with a laugh. “So, I was trying to make her feel special with not going too crazy but also 18’s big, right? So I’ll show you a little bit of the party decor.”
Brittany shared a glimpse of the gorgeous 18th birthday decorations, including balloons, signs, a game of “who knows the birthday girl the best?,” and more. Brittany shared a birthday tribute to Kendyl on her Instagram story on August 20, writing: “I can’t believe my bonus kiddo is 18 today….where did the time go? Kendyl, we love you oh so much and are so proud of you! What a blessing it has been to watch you grow into such a beautiful young lady. Happy Birthday, sweet girl.”
Last year, Aldean said in a birthday tribute to Kendyl that “as parents we spend all the young years runnin and gunnin, just trying to keep up and raise good humans. One day you wake up and they are almost grown and you realize you did pretty good at this dad thing. I can’t believe it’s been (18) years since you came in the world. You have been such a joy for all of us watching you grow up and seeing what kind of person you are. I’m so proud of you and all you stand for. I love u so much and hope u have the best day. Happy bday Kendyl ! 🎉 🎊 🎈”
