We officially have another teenager in the house! Tyler has hit the ripe old age of 13, and he continues to be the most awesome kid ever. He's fun, helpful, thoughtful, funny, hard working, and just so great to be around. This year for his birthday, he pooled together the money he got from us and grandparents, plus a little extra of his own, and he bought himself an X-Box. Although he really only has time to play it on Saturdays, it's all he wanted. And he's been pretty excited about it!
For Tyler's birthday party, he invited about 10 friends over for a Minute-To-Win-It party. They had so much fun!! It was a great group of boys, and they laughed and laughed at each other. And of course no party would be complete without the full tackle football in the backyard. Unfortunately for Tyler, this particular stint ended up with him in the ER with a possible broken arm. Thankfully it was just a bad sprain, and we were able to roll into bed a little after midnight. I refuse to let it dampen the memory of the party, though, because he had a really great time. Now it's just a funny story!
