Time flies in the blink of an eye, and Donald Trump Jr. can certainly attest to that. The eldest son of the U.S. President and his ex-wife, Vanessa Trump, have watched their children grow up fast, starting with their daughter Kai Madison, who just celebrated her 19th birthday. The young golfer, the oldest of the President’s grandchildren, marked her latest trip around the sun with a fun party featuring a delicious menu highlighting several Mexican dishes.

Vanessa posed proudly next to her daughter, who just a few weeks ago graduated from high school and revealed she will be attending the University of Miami. Don also snapped a photo with Kai, as did her 17-year-old brother, Donnie (Donald Trump III). The only ones missing from the album were the birthday girl’s younger siblings: Chloe Sophia, Tristan Milos, and Spencer Frederick.
Kai’s post included a small glimpse of the culinary delights she and her guests enjoyed. In addition to the essential birthday cake, which featured a beautiful pink geode design, the golfer and her loved ones sampled a variety of dishes, including several staples of Mexican cuisine.
