Happy Birthday to Zack

Today was Zack's 18th birthday. It was very normal and ordinary for Zack. Work, work, work, and then best of all he got to go to the podiatrist to have his ingrown looked at. What a happy treat. Zack and Seth went to Rexburg and they got blizzards treats after they saw the doctor. Then they got some peat moss for my flower beds and then came home. We made a birthday cake and got things ready for a birthday party cookout. Hamburgers, potato salad, green salad, watermelon, grapes, and strawberries, chips and salsa. Oh and ice cream too. Neopolitan. Just thought you all would like to hear about our day. Here are some pictures of Zack just to remind everyone of what a fun boy he is and how he has changed over the years.

Zack when he was about 12. Christmas time at Grandma Baum's

Zack running at the Idaho Falls Cross country invitational last September. Whitney ran so hard to get this picture. Thanks Whit.

Zack when he was about 3 yrs old eating spaghetti. He was a very messy eater. He would get so tired eating, he would have to have a nap right after. Sometimes right on the table.

Zack with a rhubarb leaf on his head eating watermelon. Why the leaf? Because he could.
Just a really cute picture of him. about 12 or 13 yrs old.
Another really cute picture of him. About 2 and 1/2 yrs old.
Zack's 3rd or 4th grad picture.

Now he is 18 he has to do his civic duty and patriotic duty too. He must register for the selective service and also register to vote. Grandma Baum says she hopes he knows which party to register with.
Zack in his bedroom under the stairs. I know someone else who had to sleep under the stairs and he turned out to be very special too.

Preparing for Zack's party today. Seth, AA, Roni and Shelley.

It was a beautiful evening.
Zack pretending to blow out his candles.

He's looking so much more mature now that he is 18. Don't you think?
Happy Birthday to our Sweet Zack.

I am glad that he got the in-grown taken care of. I am still a little bummed that he won't be coming down to southern Utah with us. Hope he had a good birthday. He does look pretty mature in the last picture. I wish it wasn't blurry, it is blurry isn't it or is my vision changing.
