Jeremy's Surprise 16th Birthday Party

We got Jeremy good on his 16th birthday. Jeremy hasn't been really good lately about telling us what he wants, especially for his birthday. But we always try to give the kids a big 16th birthday party. So because he wouldn't tell us what he wanted to do, we decided to surprise him. We asked a friend of his to invite lots of kids and be at our house at 5:00. We then dropped Jeremy off at a friends house and told him to be home by 5:30 because we needed him to babysit. He was NOT too happy about babysitting on his birthday, poor picked on kid. We then finally told Michael and Spencer what we were doing and ran to the store to get a few things to prepare. Everyone loved yelling, "Surprise!" We had a really fun time. It was great to see Jeremy so surprised and grinning from ear to ear.


He had 8 kids show up. One of them gave him a Yoda backpack. I don't think it will make it's way to school. But everyone wanted to check it out.

Boys and Trees

We had really nice weather for Spring Break. I got a few photos of the boys climbing trees. Jeremy even let me take a picture of him. Shocking, I know!
