Our sweet, sports loving, determined, funny Luke is 13. Oh, man. How time goes by so very fast. Everyone tells you but until you've experienced it, you really can't appreciate the value of time. We are savoring each and every moment with you, Lukie. We love you to the ends of the Earth and then some. Happy birthday, big guy. You'll always be out lil' Lukey Pookey.
When asked, here were your responses as a 13 yr. old!...
Favorite subjects in 7th grade: World Geography because Mr. Schultz is awesome. PE because it was fun and you can be active. My favorite thing to do in PE was pickleball. Ayrton and I won the championship! Life skills because we got to cook food and all my friends were in my class. My least favorite classes were Math and Science because of Ms. Roffi. I survived and conquered my way to getting an A in both classes.

Luke started off his birthday early with a 6 am wake up to donuts! We needed to get to Canton by 7 for their 8 am game.
Always time for a hug though...
2-4 getting to work!
Their tournament didn't end like they would have hoped BUT it's Luke's birthday and it's time to CELEBRATE!!
With Luke having a baseball tournament, Drew having a baseball tournament, and Ellie having a soccer tournament (will be in the next post!) all on his birthday weekend, Luke wanted a family dinner at The Hibachi House downtown Rochester. Absolutely, my sweet boy!
Luke was in a cooking class in 7th grade and learned all about hibachi cooking. Since then he's been wanting to try it! This was our 1st time taking the whole family and I am happy to report that everyone loved it!!
The pic below was not planned!
Chopsticks with the "helper" for the win.
Gifts and love from Ellie...
Gifts and love from Drew...
Happy Birthday, Luke! We love you so very much.
You are worthy. You are loved. No matter what!
