Ok Here is Jake having his pictures taken before going to school.. 4th grade here he comes!!!!

Here is the bus heading for the bus stop!! I sure hope that he had a great day. Yep it looked like he had a great day. He likes to ride the bus. So do I.....

We finally had some pictures taken it has been a long time...... These are a few of my favorite ones. Jake and Craig The three of us. Jake and Me.

Well we had a great weekend for Jake's 9th birthday. Like I said we took him to the Gateway on Saturday the 9th and spent the day there. On Sunday we had a family party at our home. We had 31 people there (AAGH) well we were still missing @ 11 people if everyone was going to be there. But hey our house is plenty big.... We had fun kinda crazy with all the people and kids. Jake was so excited to have a birthday party at his house finally.. He also thought that it was kinda cool to have his birthday on the 9th and to be turning 9 years old.. As you can see the past smiles were when he was opening up his presents.. He now thinks he needs to have birthday party with his friends.. Yeah right like that is going to happen..... I think you have celebrated enough big guy.... Well I am still enjoying this blog thing...

Jacob's 9th Birthday picture.

This picture was taken by his cousin Amie. She did such a great job. This was the day of the party. She also took the picture of our family.... She is WONDERFUL.....

Well here is his cake. I still can't believe that he is 9 years old and going to start the 4th grade......

Brody Max was having a hard time sitting still he wanted to get in and open the lego toy...

PRESENTS!!!!!!!!!!!!
This would be his favorite time....

Jake was so funny while we all sang Happy Birthday to him....

Well today we decided to go to Hogle Zoo. It was fun I did not know that they had put in a carousel. It was a great day to go the high today was only in the high 80's.

Linda, Amie, Brody and Cheyann went with us. Brody was excited to see the elephants. Jake was more interested in the rhino's and not sure what Cheyann wanted to see.. She was bored... Here are a few pictures to show you all how are day was..

Brody likes to be around Jacob so I like the picture of the two of them walking together. Jake sure takes good care of him..

Jacob and Cheyann had fun checking out the snake.... That was not my favorite part it id to hot in that building and not to mention the smell...

We had a great time..

I will post Jake's birthday pictures soon I need to get them from my niece Amie. I can't believe that he is 9.. We decided to take him out just the 3 of us. We went to the Gateway and to the Clark Planetarium. We had a great time. Jake was sooooooooo excited when we took him to the Game store and he got to get a PSP...... I will post pictures......
