Happy Birthday Ry!


Ryan celebrated his 18th Birthday last week!  Hard to believe he is a legal adult?!  How did this happen so fast?!  I keep reminding him when he was younger he said he'd live with mom and dad forever and take care of us - hahahaha!  He has since changed his tune.  Here's a few flashback photos...






With a few more recent ones....

                                                                  -------The best uncle------


His birthday was on a Saturday this year, so he didn't have to go to school(lucky).  I asked him what he wanted for his birthday, and he picked his birthday dinner - steak, mashed potatoes, fresh green beans and macaroni with brownies and ice cream for dessert!  So, that is what we had!!





I'm so glad we were able to spend the day together!  We didn't do too much, just chilled and watched a movie.  Thankful to have a break from our busy week. 

Here are 18 fun facts you may or may not know about RJR😎

1. He barely slipped through in time to receive his Eagle Scout Award/Rank👍

2. He got his drivers license, but he got it during COVID when you could just apply online in GA without taking the actually driving test, but then Gov. Kemp changed the rules so he had to take the actual test, which really wasn't an actual driving test because Casey sat in the car with Ryan the whole time while the driving instructor instructed Ryan(outside of the car) with his window down telling him what to do in an empty parking lot.  They never actually went out on the road to drive.  So crazy!

3. He already has senior-i-tus(not a huge fan of school).  

4. He is creatively talented and funny(but you won't know unless you know him REALLY WELL.) - he made his own survivor-man video during lockdown.  

5. He is wise beyond his years.

6. He is still very sensitive and kind(but also with a side of sass-now that he's older😏).

7.  A fellow Japanese culture enthusiast -  Kaitlyn

8. Sweet spirit and patient with the boys - Janelle

9.  Music Rockstar(writes songs and creates music for it) - Andy

10. Music genius & good jam-sesh partner - Cody

11. Still loves his PB&J's

12. Has phased out of skate-boarding 

13. Has phased in the Nintendo Switch

14. Has the best smile - Dad

15. STILL is Josh's favorite!(see above picture💓)

16. The only child with natural curly hair(which he doesn't like).

17. Favorite ice cream flavor is Moose Tracks

18. Very cautious and careful by nature.

We love our Ry!! So thankful for him and his considerate, gentle soul!!  Happy 18th Birthday to our fun, sassy, cute, sweet, kind, sensitive, smart, talented, wise and very special legit adult!!  WE LOVE YOU LOTS & LOTS!!
