Kory is a TEENAGER!!!

It's official!  We have three Teenagers!  At 13, Kory is taller than me by at least an inch.  He loves to draw and does an amazing job!  He likes to draw basketball players and will spend hours and days drawing the same picture to get it just right.  We are always impressed with what he does with a pencil.  He also loves to play basketball, play basketball video games and SLEEP.  He sleeps a lot these day!  He often falls to sleep after school and is hard to get up in the morning.  Unless, he is waking up to play basketball.  If he is waking up to play basketball he gets up just fine.

Kory picked his own gifts this year.  He wanted a lot of rapper gear.  I didn't let him get a chain or a Tupac shirt, but he did get a Chance the rapper hat and Conner McGregger shirt and a Lecrae shirt.  He's into rap.  I'm not so much, but I have to let him be himself--to an extent! 

For his birthday he wanted chicken fried steak for dinner with a lemon meringue cake for dessert.

This cake may have been the best cake I've ever eaten!  It did not disappoint!

An art project Kory made in art this year.  His theme was cartoon and he even had CLOUD MAN(bottom right)--a cartoon he created and writes stories about.  He's pretty funny and shoots lightening out of his behind!  That makes all the boys laugh.
