He is turning 18!

 This young man decided to jump ship 6 weeks early.  He was a fighter :)

 He is our little sunshine boy

 Always using his imagination

 He likes to take on challenges and see how far he can go...

 Jacob finished off his senior year with a bang, graduating with honors and lots of bling.

and now...waiting to become the 4th and final missionary to serve in our family.

It's hard to imagine this young man is turning 18 and ready for the next chapter in his life's book.  He has a love of sports, learning and is so excited to serve in Peru.

Some things you might know about his young man:

J - A joy to have and will be greatly missed for the next 2 years :(

A - Always concerned about other's feelings

C - This boy is creative when it comes to writing

O - Strives to be obedient in all he does.

B - Loves to be around his older brothers (teasing and all...well, maybe sometimes)

We are so grateful that you decided to join our family, you have made our home complete and full of life and love.

We hope you have a wonderful Birthday.

We love  you, Jacob!

 His favorite Breakfast: Bacon and Chocolate muffin.  Who can complain with that?

 What would a birthday be without Captain America?

 New longer shorts...

 He is very excited...haha!

 Of course another Captain America shirt. (Can you tell it's his favorite?)

Boo-yah!  Missionary Scriptures, watch out...Here comes "Elder Roberts"
