Johnathan Happy 9th Birthday!!!!



Johnathan we have had a lot of fun times together. Here are some of my favorite memories with you.

Oregon Rose Gardens Candyland Express

Johnathan & Jared

Precious moment

Tanner, Johnathan, and Tricia at the Rose Gardens in Oregon.

There you are in a little cabin.

You look like you are on top of the world at the beautiful gardens at Thanksgiving Point.

It was so much fun watching you at swimming lessons. I love your big brown eyes.Great times in your backyard.Johnathan and Rachel in the Sequoias. A silly moment.
Johnathan and Carter

Fun times last summer at Aunt Mary Ann's going off the diving board. Watch out for Johnathan, here he comes.

Grandpa and I loved seeing the beautiful gardens at Thanksgiving Point with you.

Our shepherds keeping a watch over the flocks.


Wasn't it fun watching the frogs near the lily ponds?

We enjoyed having you at our house at Christmas time and any other time we can be with you.
I love your great smile and all of the great gifts that you have made for us. You are kind of quiet and hang back in a crowd just like your Mother and I do. That is all right. We need some quiet people in this world. You make your mark in other ways like doing nice things for others.

It is so great to see you sing and participate in so many wonderful things. You have a wonderful voice. I hope that you will continue to enjoy singing.

I have really enjoyed seeing on your family blog the great things that you are doing in Cub Scouts.

You sure are growing up and I have a very special place in my heart for you, Johnathan. You are very special to Grandpa and I. Have a very wonderful birthday, we will be thinking of you! We love you very much.

I want to know how you know the difference between Carter and Parker. I have NO idea which is which. I know, horrible Aunt. :)

There are some tricks like their face shape are different and so are their smiles. I am never positive if I am right or not.
Tricia said I had them all right on the blogs I did for them so I was very happy.
I think it is getting easier the older they get. I use an educated guess and hope I'm right.

Love some of these pictures of JOhnathan- esp. the one when he is swimming - his eyes are so beautiful in this picture.
