| Bright and early, on the morning of April 16th, God blessed our home with a blond-haired, blue-eyed baby brother. I used to call him "my angel"~ but even though he was still my angel, he grew into a tough-as-nails little "all-boy"...one who tried eating an earthworm when he was little and saying it tasted like cheese or needing stitches in his chin! He is still all-boy...one who likes hunting and fishing, and is a great help outdoors around the farm, although I must say he can also make an awesome batch of grape-nut cereal too!:o) |
 |
| On his birthday, Daddy took him and some of his brothers, to Springfield where they hung out and had a fun time at Bass Pro, ate at McAllisters and went birthday shopping for a new bike. Here he's trying out a four wheeler for the fun of it...but a PINK one?!:o) |

| The Budweiser horses were also visiting there that day--not that we're into the Budweiser part, but the huge horses were sure cool! |
 |
| After they got home, we had a birthday party here, with a chocolate chip cookie cake and home-made ice cream-- |
 |

| Birthday party at Pop's house...hey, wait a minute, how old are you? Looking good for a guy of 51! |
 |
| There, that's better!!!! Soon enough, let's not rush it!:o) This time he had a fruit pizza for a birthday cake~ |
 |
| His birthday gift from us...a new bike. And a matching one for Aubrey for his birthday (in August), because it's alot funner to have a pal to ride with!:o) |

| "Oh, the eagerness and freshness of youth! How the boy enjoys his food, his sleep, his sports, his companions, his truant days! His life is an adven- ture, he is widening his outlook, he is extending his dominion, he is conquering his kingdom. How cheap are his pleasures, how ready his enthusiasms!" -John Burroughs |
 |
| "May the road rise to meet you, May the wind be always at your back, May the sun shine warm upon your face, And... May God hold you in the hollow of His hand." *********** You are such a special part of our family~ We love you, Ty! |

Personally, I've never one, and don't intend to find out!:o) Although I get the idea that "junky" hot dogs have them as an ingredient (erythorbate, I'm thinking)--so maybe we've all had more than we care to think about, only they tasted like hot dogs by the time they got to us!!!!LOL:o)
