Happy Birthday, Travis!

Today, Travis turns 8! I remember the day he was born like it was yesterday. Afterall, I was actually laboring on Labor Day! At 8 years old, Travis:
*loves to be outside playing or working
*is very imaginative and is always thinking up of things to make or experiment with
*is terrible when it comes to sleep walking/talking...especially if he gets over tired...we can count on him doing something strange in the night!
*is my early riser
*helps back his dad up to the trailers (boat and 4wheeler) every time (and is better at it than me!)
*is a good money saver. He really wants to buy lots of things, but when it comes down to it, he would rather save his money
*is really good helping with his younger cousins
*doesn't love school but does well in it
*is particular about his hair and what he wears
*loves tacos and zucchini (in any form)
*is in charge of emptying the dishwasher, setting the table, cleaning his room and making his bed
*love football

Travis, we are so happy that you were sent to our family. You are full of life and energy and keep us on our toes. You are passionate about whatever you are doing and make us all smile. Happy birthday, buddy!

We went out and took some pictures to use on his baptism invitation. Here are a few of my favorites.

this picture cracks me up. He wasn't too happy to see that I took it!
