If you would have told me on my 17th birthday what my life would be like today and all that I'd have gone through, I probably wouldn't have believed you. Not at all. Maybe even laughed a bit.
If you would have told me a year ago what my life would be like today, I might have believed. Maybe not. But I would have wanted to. Probably wouldn't have laughed.
Regardless, I have nothing to complain about. Nothing. And I wouldn't change anything from my life, other than maybe my own stupid mistakes or bad decisions.
I am a blessed man. My wife, my kids, my family, my friends, my church, my job, my God - who am I to look up and utter anything other than a humble and inadequate, "Thank you!"
Normally for my birthday I'd like getting a bunch of people together. And I admit it, I'm a present person. No shame. But this time around I just wanted to be low key and spend time with Jeannette and the kids. After a hectic and crazy summer, just a day to wander around the city is what I needed. And that's what I got. It was a fantastic day, incredibly fun.
Here are some of the pics and a vid from my birthday:

| Jaxon thought the bean was the coolest thing ever. |
 |
| True story: Baylee picked up her brother, the guy threw the ball, Jaxon caught it while being held up. |
 |
| This dude let Jaxon play catch with him & his kids. Jaxon showed them all up. |

 |
| Jaxon! Stop and take a picture! |
 |
| Follow the psychedelic road |
 |
| Strike a pose |
 |
| Follow the leader |
