Happy Birthday to Jacob

Hard to believe that our Jacob is 12. That is all I can say. Hard to believe.

Jacob’s birthday was great. Christi & Micah were returning home from their brief trip to Texas for Andi’s baby shower, so he had to wait for their return before he could open his birthday gifts. He opened a video game first and noticed that it was for the XBOX 360. I hit my hand to my head and said “whoops! I guess we’ll have to trade that in for an XBOX version.”. Then he opened a package that had a new wireless controller in it - also for the 360. Hee hee. Then it clicked in. He looked at the big box and tore it open. Yep! An XBOX 360!

I must admit that I am having just as much fun as he is with this machine. It is pretty impressive. But last night he beat me 4 races in a row on Burnout. When did he get so good???!!! (And so grown up.)

Happy Birthday Jacob.
