We are so blessed to live by so much amazing family. A year ago we had to say goodbye to Tyler for his misson, and tonight we said goodbye to Jared since he is heading up to BYU. As we pulled into our driveway tonight, Jacob said, "Mommy, I'm so sad for Jared to be leaving us!" I love how my kids love their cousins, and I am so thankful for the love and great examples those wonderful cousins give.

Jacob's 4th Birthday!
Cute Jacob is 4! Man alive, time is a crazy thing. A day can seem to stretch on and on, but a year speeds away in a blink of an eye.
This cute boy was so excited to have a friend birthday party! He even picked out his Paw Patrol "kinyata" about 2 months in advance and had it hanging in his room. It lasted through the part pretty darn well and is right back up there in its place of honor.
I kept asking Jacob what games we should plan for his party--water balloons, trampoline fun, etc. All he wanted was to play, so we set up a bunch of different stations of blocks, trains, cars, stickers, and coloring. Two days before his party, he kept talking about wanting a dog to come. Thankfully, we have a sweet man down the street named Gary who was willing to bring his gentle dog Kona. What a treat!
Jacob is so much fun! I love how he puts all his energy into happy smiles, and I love how his eyes almost look like upside down half moons when he does his biggest smiles. He adores his baby brother Joseph and wants to be just like his older brothers and his daddy, who, by the way "is the strongest man in the whole world. He can flip cars." He says such fun things al the time and is constantly making us laugh. Jacob has a clear love for his Savior, and is constantly referring to the things Jesus Christ can do (like beat up bad guys). We just love this precious, kind, genuinely happy, amazing boy!!!!
