My birthday boys

On May 15 Jacob turned 19 years old.  Wow, how time flies.  We grilled steak and had a nice dinner topped off with a Dairy Queen cake.  One is never to old for ice cream!!

Jacob turns 19

On the 21st of May, my Isaac became a teenager.  We had Subway, his favorite, and surprised him with a cell phone!

Isaac turns 13

Where, oh where have my baby boys gone?


We’re saving money on gas…

well, at least Jacob is. Did you know that his new crotch rocket gets 60 miles to the gallon? Just think of all the money he will save on gas this summer. While you’re thinking about that, be sure to pray for Jacob’s mom (me) while she adds this to her list of reasons to pray!

Do you think he’ll listen to any good advice from Uncle Jay? I should add that he did do a nice job of saving, creating his budget and qualifying for the loan all on his own.
