Happy Birthday Little Bro!

That's right, our little C.J. isn't so little anymore. He once was the cute little boy with a bowl cut that Jenessa and I use to walk around the neighborhood dressed up in her old Dorthy Halloween costume (red wig with braided pig tails included) introducing him to everyone as our little sister! Well... we didn't want him to feel left out...
In spite of all we have done to him, including duck taping him to a chair when he bugged us, he turned out pretty ok! Well better then ok actually... this kid is a STUD! 4 sisters/ 5 mothers did the trick, we turned this guy into a amazing football and baseball champ... even if some of us didn't know what a TD was?! All the years of torture paid off... no one hurts like a big sister, making C.J. the strongest man I know.

15 years old and he has survived, I just can't believe how fast he grew up. C.J. got to celebrate his big day golfing with all the bro-in-laws and dad then we went to his fav, Red Robin for dinner! Afterward cake and ice cream of course!

This just goes to show that no matter what age (Luke-24, Devin-30, and C.J.-15) guys never grow up! They played this most of the time we were at Red Robin... I didn't even know they had games there?!

CJ and the girls (except Jen who was working) If it weren't for us he wouldn't know all his smooth moves and would never be the ladies man he is! Ok, the cute smile and dimples help!

CJ, I love you so much! You are a awesome kid with a heart of gold! You will always be that sweet little boy with the bowl cut to me... who loved to play with power tools and had to watch Toy Story at least once a day! I am proud of the man you are becoming. It still takes some getting use to when you answer the phone and I hear a voice much deeper then I remember you having! I am sorry you had to have 4 big sisters to mother you and tease you... but there is no doubt that we love you so much and couldn't believe how lucky we were to FINALLY get the little brother we have been praying for. Your a awesome athlete and you make us proud when we see you at your games! Even if you are the most spoiled kid we know, you have a good nature about you and a charming personality... I love you peanut!

And don't worry.... maybe on your 16th birthday you can do this... Brandon will teach you (wink)!
