Birthday Boy

Nine years ago to the day he changed my life.


Here are NINE things about him that you may not know...


* He walked when he was nine months old... and looked way too little to be walking!

* He loves animals of all kind. (but has a special place in his heart for Maggie)

* He's the first one to get up in this household... almost everyday.

* He lives to be outdoors - especially if it involves hunting and fishing!

* His nose bleeds ALL the time... LOL

* He reigns temporarily as the "Foosball Champion" (of the new foosball table he got for his birthday)... going 3 times in a row undefeated in our family.

* He loves and sometimes prefers a good ole' salad.

* He has three guns of his own and has dang good aim! :) (Only in Texas)

* He is athletic, wonderful, analytical, caring and the most handsome, sweetest 9 year old boy I've ever met...
