Happy Birthday to our 13 year old!

Adam said he shook Jacob awake this morning saying, “Its your birthday Jacob, Wake up!”  Then they both came into the bedroom to wake us up.  I had just taken Wyatt outside so I was awake in bed.  Jacob woke up Eli because he was ready to open his presents.  He got an iPod, a case knife, drawing pencils,  drawing paper, candy, and gum.  We also put some money on his iPod so he could download some music from iTunes.  Daddy and Adam went to town to get our Saturday goodies.  Jacob played on his iPod.  We had fun going through pictures/videos from his old iPod and moving them to his new one.  We talked about going to see the new Star wars movie but Jacob really just wanted to stay at home today.  We took a walk in the woods and showed the boys some cool mushrooms out there.  Jacob got some nice pictures with his iPod.  Daddy and Adam went to Darren’s house to take care of his cats.  Jacob found a stick in the woods and sat on the deck to whittle it.  Eli and I played a game of tonk which ended in a tie.  It was a very warm day so we all cooled off in the pool.  The boys made a fast whirlpool and also made some big waves.  Came in around 1:00 to grill hot dogs for lunch.  We relaxed on the deck for awhile and then decided to get out the hammocks and relax in the woods. Jacob and Adam played the computer while Daddy and Eli went to town to get Good Times pizza for dinner.  We watched Inspector Gadget while eating dinner.  Then we sang to the birthday boys and had cake and ice cream.   There was a thunder storm headed our way so we sat on the deck and enjoyed listening to the storm.  We went in when it started to rain.  After tucking Eli and Adam in bed Jacob, Daddy and I played a game of tonk.  We had such a great day celebrating with our teenager!
