Gamers be dead in the water

We have recently started playing Minecraft together again, and building an online LAN world together. It has been absolutely fabulous and so much fun, and usually when I say that it is time to log off, you will start your stalling tactics. :P

It's fun to go exploring the Minecraft world with you.

You built the house as well as horse stables, and I did a little landscaping :)

Anyway, today we had some time, and kept encountering problems getting on. I thought it was a problem with my computer until we went to downdetector and saw this.

It was a relief to find out that it wasn't something wrong on OUR end, but it was like, "Bummer, man, I really wanted to continue our adventures today, but oh well."

Happy Birthday, Sweet Boy :)

You're 16! 

Time is such a paradox though. It seems like not that long ago since you were a little, little boy, but at the same time, it sometimes feels like so much time has passed as well!  It certainly is a weird feeling.

We love you so much and are eternally grateful to have been able to be your parents.  You are exceedingly sweet and kind, and that mind of yours is truly keen and amazing. Mwaks.

Helping to Decorate Your Birthday Cake

This year, you decided that you wanted to help decorate your birthday cake, and hey, how could I say "No" ? :)

Mr. Model

Of course we are not only getting the groceries. This is also a "strut your stuff" and "do your best Zoolander" moment. :P
