Well I did it again, it's been an eternity, but I wanted to get down some stuff for Alex's birthday!
I am now the proud mom of a 10 year old. How did that happen? Alex has changed so much in the last year. He's grown at least 3 inches. And he's so much more mature.
I thought I'd show some pictures of his favorite things. First, is the summer music camp. This year he had a bigger part and a solo. He did fabulous!

This summer on vacation he got to go for a sailboat ride. And then last week when he was out in OH with mom and dad he was able to take a week long sailing class. He loved learning to sail and on Friday for his test he went out with the instructor, who let him sail the boat on his own.
I even managed to get a picture of him out on the boat.

All the boys got to drive grandpas boat, with a little help. Are you sensing a theme here. Alex's favorite place is out in a boat.
He also loves hanging over the side of the boat and getting wet in the spray. This is the only time we see this amazing look of joy on his face.




Alex also performed in the fun with music program. He loved getting to play the chimes and sing.
And of course he loves to talk to his new baby cousin Lanie.
All in all, I think we have a water loving musician in the family. Boy is he growing up fast.
Happy birthday sweet boy!
