Dave Turns 13

It's pretty much impossible to believe Dave is a teenager. The years have gone by so quickly! He is such a great kid and we are so proud to be his parents! Here's a little about him at 13. 

Love this picture with Grandpa Boo. The kids go out with Josh's parents for every birthday. Dave almost always chooses Culver's. 

We actually celebrated his birthday in Evansville this year since it was the day after Thanksgiving. That meant he got lots and lots of cakes (and pies!).

Dad and Kyra threw a joint party for Dave and Tony since their birthdays are only two days apart. 

 

So a little about Dave. He has continued doing fantastic in school this year and is really thriving with moving up to the junior/senior high school. He has been involved in Esports playing Super Smash Bros and has absolutely loved that. He hangs out with high schoolers playing so that has been pretty cool! His robotics team has done well so far this year and they hope to make it to state again. 

Since he got a phone for his birthday (!) he has mostly watched a lot of youtube reals, ha! I'll have to ask him what his favorite show is right now, probably one of the Marvel ones on Disney+. He loved the new Avatar movie and is looking forward to lots of new ones coming out next year. He loves attending the youth group at church, especially the Wednesday morning coffee shop meet-ups here on campus! I think he was reading the Harry Potter series but recently started on The Giver since those were so long. He is so dang stubborn sometimes but he definitely gets that honest!

I really cannot wait to see what the future holds for this kid, but also want time to slow way way down.
