Caleb's 14th birthday party!

This past weekend, our family and friends gathered with us to celebrate our Caleb's 14th birthday! He chose a glow-in-the-dark party this year, which was pretty cool! We found ideas on Pinterest, including one to make frosting that glowed in black light, made with tonic water. We had traditional burgers and hot dogs, with salad and chips. He chose pumpkin cake to decorate, and it was yummy!

Enjoy the pictures of our enjoyable party celebrating our great kid!
 He got a new CUBS World Series hat from his Grandpa and Grandma-- LOVES it!
 A new small football from his sisters...
 A nice Broncos hat and...
 a cool Rockies sign from Nana...
 A few nice shirts and pants from Auntie Allie (she keeps him so well dressed!)
 And a new Broncos hat (which we will exchange and have stitched) from Mom and Dad...
 and a Flash coloring book. He received so many wonderful gifts! He loves his new hats!
 He made the cupcakes with his friend, and even lit the neon candles!
 Cool glowing!

On Sunday evening, he got baptized at our church, by the same Pastor that baptized both of us (his parents), and his two sisters. Only one more baptism to go, when our youngest is older! It was a special time, I got all teary-eyed! What a great choice to love and serve Jesus, and profess his faith in Christ!

 After the baptism with Dad and Mom.
His last gift this morning, a new Flash t-shirt-- cool!

It was a wonderful weekend of a sleepover with his friends, a party with friends and family, then a friend here after church, and finally a baptism! We are thankful for our funny, creative, athletic, tender-hearted son!



Joshua 1:9
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”

Proverbs 1:7-10
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge,
but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
Listen, my son, to your father’s instruction
and do not forsake your mother’s teaching.
They are a garland to grace your head
and a chain to adorn your neck.
My son, if sinful men entice you,
do not give in to them.

Proverbs 19:27
Stop listening to instruction, my son, and you will stray from the words of knowledge.
