My son, Gabe, is fourteen years old today.
FOURTEEN YEARS. Where has the time gone???
I
can't seem to get the pictures to go in the order I want -- I keep
erasing them. We're getting ready to take Gabe out to dinner so I've got
to hurry... Here's 15 pictures, one for each year and one to grow on!

He wants a new hoodie, a 12 pack of mountain dew, and a donut tower (instead of a cake).
He is definitely a teenager.
Happy Birthday Gabe! Those pics are so fun! Have fun celebrating!
ReplyDeleteMmmm. donuts.
24 packs of Mt. Dew are on sale through today at Smithfield Implement for $4.97ish. We totally stocked up...
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Gabe!
A Donut tower! Brilliant...that's what I want for my birthday! Do you just stack them or is there a secret? :) I can't believe how grown up he looks in that last photo.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Gabe!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to Gabe! I was thinking, phewsh...I have a while to go before I have a 14 year old. And then I looked at the dates. And I have two years.
ReplyDeleteHOW DOES THIS HAPPEN?
Gabe looks like an amazing teenager, and you are an amazing mom.
Can't believe you've been a mom this long? You must be an expert!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Gabe! I love looking at these photos! they remind me a little bit of my eldest and how she became a big sibling. so sweet. and love that he wants the donut tower. that's funny.
