Tyler's Dragon

Tyler turned 13 this month!  Can't believe we have a teenager!  I joked with Monty that now we are officially parents because we have a teenager.  He is the best teenager anyone could ask for.  Such a good natured kid.  And let me tell you he can clean a kitchen!!  It takes him a while, but when he's done it looks so nice!!(To his future wife:  You're welcome!)  So, he spent his birthday on a scout camp out.  They went to Wyoming and went sledding.  He had a blast.  Then he came home and we had a crab boil and pie.  Tyler is not that big of a cake guy, but loves pie.  For his birthday we decided get him a bearded dragon.  He has wanted one for quite some time now.  When he opened the note that said, 'Lets go get a bearded dragon' I cried because he was so surprised and happy.  Tyler is a pretty even tempered and sometimes doesn't show a lot of emotion.  If he is happy sometimes you don't know.  If he is mad sometimes you don't know.  However, the moment he opened that letter I KNEW he was happy!!  It was priceless.  So, we went to the store and when he saw his dragon he KNEW!  He said, "That's it!!"  It was the smallest one and rather cute.  He has enjoyed having 'it'.  However, he won't name it till we know if it's a boy or a girl.

The new Pet

Love this boy!!

I haven't seen him in years, but this post doesn't surprise me. He always amazed me. Congratulations on a fine young man -- but I'm not exactly jealous of that lizard :)

I will thank you in advance for teaching Tyler to clean. ;) Kaitlyn will later. (tehe)

That dragon looks a lot like all the lizards that hang out around these parts....although I am sure it's not the same bred (or whatever).

Having a teenager doesn't make you officially parents...it makes you officially OLD!
