Jackson had a great 11th birthday. It started early because we thought he and Jordan had baseball games, but they were both cancelled even though it was raining. The field was just really muddy from the rain in the past week. After we heard the game was cancelled Jackson opened his presents.
I bought him some poptarts.
11!
Making 11 like he did in kindergarten!
Coleman is not very good at staying out the way while someone is opening presents.

We went bowling, but I forgot my camera :( Doug brought his, but hasn't given me the pictures yet. Then we went to Target so Jack could spend his birthday money.
Jack bought another battle arena for his bey blades and a few new bey blades.
We also got Slurpees from 7-11.
We had a bey blades tournament.
We went to Burger King for dinner and my parents met us there.
My parents came over after to give Jackson his presents and we had cake.
Grandpa gave Jackson his birthday spankings.
More clothes!

Kenzie took a few pictures :)
And she wanted to pose for several :)
He tried blowing out his candles a few different ways.
He got Banangrams from the Kenyons so we played it. It was a lot of fun!
Then Jackson and Grandpa played chess.
We let Jackson stay up a little later and he played the Switch with Doug.
Here's somethings about Jackson:
He still loves all sports and would love to play sports all day everyday. Unless his legs get too tired:)
The only thing he might love as much as sports is video games. He would also love to do that all day everyday. He loves playing the Switch with Doug and a computer game called Diep.io with Jordan on the computer.
He enjoys reading a lot too, but has had a a harder time finding books he likes lately. He doesn't like fantasy as much because it usually gets too scary for him. He is currently reading The Chronicles of Narnia though and is loving it. He also loves the Hatchet series.
He is very responsible. I made him a check list to complete each week for homeschool and he completed it every week without me having to remind him most of the time. He gets up every morning and does his Language Arts, math, and all his tasks (which are clean his room, practice the piano, a clean up chore that changes each day, brush his teeth, and read for 20 minutes) by about 9. He loves the free time that comes after he finishes his work :)
He loves learning French and his current goal is to get 100% fluency on Duolingo by Christmas.
He also is learning a few other languages on Duolingo.
He loves playing the piano and practices a lot. He plays really well.
He loves writing comics about a yellow square named Invisible Bob.
He doesn't really like to watch TV or movies that much. He'd rather play video games. He does like watching sports, especially football.
He loves playing games.
He recently said that his favorite sport is now basketball.
He's a good kid.
He's adored by all his siblings. Everyone always wants to sit by him in the car.
We are so happy he's part of out family!
We love him so much!
