Another Teenager in the House - Pray for Us

Well, I've finally dusted off my blog and am trying to get back at it.  There is so much to catch up on but for now, I'll post about Bowen's birthday that happened yesterday.

Our Bowen is 13!!  That's right, another teenager in the house.  Bowen is a great kid.  He's so smart (probably too smart for his own good).  He's very sensitive, talented, dramatic, really funny and we are grateful to call him ours (most days - hehe).

Monday night we took Bowen to his favourite restaurant - Red Lobster or Red Lobsters as Cadence calls it - for dinner.

Bowen ordered the most expensive thing on the menu I think.  He had crab legs, shrimp, lobster, and mashed potatoes.  Even Cadence ordered lobster and ate the whole thing.  Why do our kids have such expensive tastes?  When I was growing up we weren't allowed to have lobster!







Yesterday, his actual birthday I made him eggs benedict for breakfast after getting home from taking Ashton to seminary. 



Then off to school for the birthday boy.  Unfortunately, he had a pretty terrible day at school, including having a pop burst in his backpack, but he did say the rest of the day at home made up for it.  For supper, we had one of Bowen's favourite meals, butter chicken.  If you haven't figured out already, it is all about the food for Bowen.  Then it was time for presents and cake.

Bowen got a screen protector for his Switch, a pro controller, and travel case for all his gaming gear.  He was excited and happy.



Happy Birthday Bowen!  We are very proud of the great young man you are becoming and love you very much.  Hope "13" is a fantastic year.
