A Summary of Jackson's Fifth Year

 This year, Jackson visited the East Coast...twice!

 Jackson made new friends...

 and tried new sports.

 Jackson visited new places with his cousins.

Jackson repeated old favorites.

 Jackson learned new things.

 Jackson celebrated half-birthdays, milestone birthdays, and sweet birthdays.

 Jackson enjoyed every minute of just being four.

This next year, we hope to visit the West Coast.  Hopefully, we can add another state to our list, repeat some more old favorites like the Dallas Arboretum and Sea World...maybe even Disney World.  We want to start AWANAs and continue Kid's Praise.  Hopefully we do some more projects like our kindness project.  Starting kindergarten will be a big milestone.

Fast Fun at Fire Mountain

The Big Boys

Jackson had a "blast" tagging along with the big boys at Aunt Lynn's Fourth of July party.

Four Years Ago...

I thought I would do a flashback of Jackson celebrating the Olympics four years ago.  Later, I will post about this year's Olympic celebrations.

Where We Left Off...

Our last blog post concluded with fireworks and this beautiful sunset.  After more than a month hiatus with no outlet and some pretty big events, I've acquiesced and decided to publish our blog the same as the rest of the world...blogspot.  Maybe I can even get a cute new design.
