It is incredibly hard for me to believe that my oldest nephew is ten years old today!! I think back on all the memories - the first day I got to hold him, the vacations we took as a family, the things he's played with or built over the years (Legos, trains, cars), the time in water, and the numerous ways I've seen him grow up!
Here are some pics over the past ten years. They don' even begin to cover the hundreds of pictures I have of him. And I wish I had a copy of the pic where I was holding Dean for the first time. But alas...these are the ones I picked.
 |
| Always playing or building |
 |
| Picking pumpkins at Ort's Farm |
 |
| Wearing his socks like Poppy |
 |
| Even though not the best quality, still one of my most fav images of Dean |
 |
| Looooved this kissy face he used to make for me |
 |
| Yes, my hair used to be that short |
And so last night we celebrated with a family dinner...on the eve of his 10th bday! He has grown so much - physically taller - but also is growing into a nice young man. But he'll always be my little love, my first nephew, and has my heart.
So here's some pics of our celebration from last night:
 |
| 10 fingers for my 10-yr. old!! |
 |
| biking gloves |
 |
| There couldn't be a better gift....a book of Lego ideas |
 |
| I guess this could be better....a huge motorized Lego set |
 |
| $10 for the 10-yr. old |
 |
| Blowing out 10 candles..... |
 |
| The candles were the kind that keep re-lighting...Dean laughed and laughed! |
Happy birthday to my special little man......I love you Dean-o!!! Love, Aunt Sissy
