Caleb's 17th birthday!

Our son Caleb turned 17 (!?!) this past week. We had a nice weekend celebrating him and his life. He is a great kid! We are so glad that he is our son. He is hard-working, passionate, kind-hearted, smart and loveable! 

 Here he was all ready for Homecoming a few weeks ago...

 On his birthday morning, we had pancakes and he opened a few gifts. His sisters gave him a Poe Dameron pop figure...

 and a nice, white, striped t-shirt.

 We gave him a nice, blue, button-down shirt...

 and pants that were too big. We exchanged them for tall, boy jeans!

 We had a party for him on Saturday morning with some family and friends...

 A nice shirt from Nana...

 YUM! Hot sauces from Auntie Allie, as well as nice clothes!

 His big gift from Mom and Dad was a new batting tee since his old one finally broke.

 Looking at all the parts, putting it together! It will be great to use for practice in the off-season!
