nope! wrong again!
jacob is patiently waiting for his cake!
then he enjoys a view from his big brother's broad shoulders as he attempts to hide the remainder of his cake in josiah's ears. we had a wonderful evening celebrating his 16th birthday!
the next day was such a beautiful day. we used it to finish some outside fall clean up.
as soon as jacob heard the tractor start up, he took off...
...and found his spot for the job.
then he decided to try his hand at raking leaves
until he got a phone call
after that, he was thirsty and done for the day!!
it was fun watching him enjoy a beautiful fall day helping clean up the backyard!

What a beautiful weekend, my friend. STUNNING pics of your family.
Okay, so are you seriously still wearing shorts and t-shirts in your neck of the woods?
So. Not. Fair.

They grow up so very fast.

I'm glad Josiah had a good Birthday. I just love that picture of him and Jacob! Jacob is so precious!!!
I love the big brother/little brother picture, so adorable!
My youngest didn't want a big party on his 16th either, so we just had a family thing too.
Your son looks so sweet. An iPod touch. Nice. Can I have one for my birthday? LOL I promise I won't ask for a party! LOL
Loved all the pictures.

Wow, I love Josiah's low key celebration. You were very lucky that was all he wanted!
I need to get Andrew out in the yard with me to do some work!
OK, so I don't know what to tell you first about what I love about this post.....the photos.....your beautiful family....Jacob's infectious smile.
I think what made my heart burst open was the fact that your son "just wanted to have his dad cook steaks on the grill and have his grandparents over."
makes my heart go thumpa thumpa

I LOVE the picture of Jacob on Josiah's shoulders. It will be one of those family treasures for all of you. Frame it friend!

Your son's choice of a birthday celebration speaks so loudly...he is blessed and so are you...the pictures were precious....

What a happy, smiling birthday! If I could get all my guys to smile at the same time, I think the world would end and we'd be raptured up! What joyful pictures - what a totally beautiful family. I think I'm going to send my teens over to your house so you cana turn them into happy smiling teens (well, my 14 year old smils a lot, but the 17 - if he smiles more than 2x a week, it's amazing!
Happy Birthday Josiah! You're growing up way too fast!
