Happy 13th Birthday Chandler!


mmmm, ice cream!


Early Morning Birthday Breakfast!


Scripture time before pancakes!

Today Chandler turned 13! He was so excited and I was so not. I feel really old being the mother of a teenager. I just hope he continues to be a nice teenager, kind of like he's been a nice boy. He woke up early and in a good mood, which is highly unusual. I made him pumpkin pancakes with chocolate chip smiley faces for breakfast, mmm mmm good! Grandma and Grandpa Dickson gave him a Texas Longhorns T-shirt. That put a BIG smile on his face! He had a great day at school, then we went out for dinner. Chandler loves going to Texas Roadhouse. He ordered a steak, medium well, and baked beans. He loves it! He got to open his present from us and was super excited to get a camera. We figured he was old enough for one and with trips and camps coming up he'd probably use it. After a ride on the roadhouse saddle, we headed home. Chandler's busy reading the owners manual for his new camera right now. He had a great birthday! We love him and are so glad he's part of our family!

We Dickson's are so mannerly when we eat out!

Yay! Birthday presents!

Hook 'em Horns!!

Wow. You're old. I don't have a teenager yet so I am still very wrong. (Nevermind I didn't get married until???) Happy Birthday Chandler.
