Another Year Older

Jackson turned another year older on November 26th. We are proud parents of a 7 year old! We had an early release from school, so we took Jackson and some of his friends bowling to celebrate his birthday.

No birthday is complete without cookie cake!

Jackson's actual birthday fell on Thanksgiving Day, so we gave thanks two-fold this year.
Because of Alese's work schedule and the A&M vs UT football game, we had our Thanksgiving lunch in College Station at Alese & Casey's house. This was our first Thanksgiving away from Waco, but was definitely worth the trip!

Jackson opened his birthday presents before Thanksgiving lunch.

We had our normal Wednesday night dinner at Bubba's the day before Thanksgiving. Since Aunt Genean & Uncle Gene couldn't make it to dinner, Aunt Genean left Mamaw in charge of making Jackson's birthday cupcakes. She also left candles that were also sparklers. The kids thought they were pretty cool! After dinner we let Jackson open an early birthday present.



It's so hard to believe that Jackson is already 7 years old. It seems like yesterday he was coloring the top of Cason's bald head with a Sharpie!
