Happy
Getting better every day
Learned to swim, jump and flip in the pool like a champ this summer
Baited his own hook with a live worm while fishing with the Cub Scouts
Loves to sell things to buy more Lego sets
New best friend Spencer moved in across the street
Has a pet named Zach, loves to carry his cage around the house and asks to take him with us wherever we go
First year at school without his sisters: 3rd grade (we noticed his teacher was 'Teacher of the Year' in Alpine School District last year... though I'm sure she's no Mrs. Blackwell) :)
We love you kids and can't believe how fast you are growing up! Thank you for making us happy everyday.
