| On September 27th, my sweet boy turned 16!!! |
 |
| His birthday present from us: he inherited his dad's Toyota truck. Nathan put on new wheels, and we got him a new stereo system. (It was Spirit Week at school, which is why he is dressed as a Mountainman.) |
 |
 |
| I WISH this picture had better lighting. Jared posted it to Instagram & labeled it "My two favorite things." |
 |
| He had already passed the written and driving test, so he was able to just go in & pick up his license on his birthday. Happy day!! |
 |
| Taking a picture of his birthday cake (chocolate mint) with his new iPhone (his bday gift to himself). |
 |
| He had a fun bday party at our house. Swarms of teenagers hung out in our backyard, chatting by the fire, |
 |
| hanging out in & around the hot tub, |
 |
| and passing Torah around. |
 |
| She LOVED all the attention! |
 |
| Nathan spent the evening trying to keep them all fed with hot dogs, 7-layer dip, and homemade milkshakes. |

The first picture is the Jared I remember. How big he has gotten. How are you? Having a 16 yrold is a big deal.
Of course you had a party and Nathan made homemade milkshakes with an actual milkshake maker. Did I ever tell you about the summer I worked 2 weeks at Iceberg making milk shakes? My shirt could stand up by itself at the end of the night and my hairy arms were quite a scary site. How was the kitchen?
I can't show my kids the post or else they'll be disappointed when they don't get a truck for their birthday...even though I did.
Nothing better than kids swarming your back yard! Love it!
Hooray for the truck. Did he know he was getting it?
We have a used Tundra that will someday be gifted to the boys as "theirs". So....what does Nathan get now?
If you would have said homemade milkshakes were being served, we might have come over even though I got your text so late! :)
I WANT TO BE THERE!!!!! Sheesh, you're old! You have a 16 year old?!?! I didn't realize you were 10 years older than I am. ;)
Oh yeah, and did you buy a milkshake maker??? you better be putting that to good use when I come in less than TWO WEEKS. I CANNOT WAIT!!!
Love your family! Hey, I know that milkshake maker. :)
