Bean

Hey Bean! I was going through some photos and realized I never showed you any of your birthday pictures! So here you go: the good, the bad, and the just plain weird moments on your 18th birthday… This will sort of be like watching a home movie, with me narrating and stuff. 🙂

Here you are, coming out of your dorm. Big Papa was very happy to see you… I fear he looks rather like a zombie here. But nevermind that – he was happy to see you.

(Rawr… chompchompchomp.. I'm so happy that I've found someone to eat… rawr…)

And of course, your baby sister was happy to see you too. You probably remember this photo from Facebook.

And remember when Dad decided to put all of your presents in a giant lawn bag and then ask you where the dumpster was? (I hope you do, bc it was only a couple of weeks ago.)

He thought that was the coolest idea.

Dads.

Birthday lunch at Lazlo's. Didn't you love how your steak was overcooked, and when you politely told Dad you'd handle it yourself, he said, "Okay, sweety," but when the server walked over, he took matters into his own hands and you ended up with another overcooked steak?

Sophie loved getting to go up to your dorm room, btw. She especially loved Oliver. RIP, little Olly. 🙁

Here you are with your lawn bag of presents.

I love the skirt Dad picked out for you! Here you are, modeling it.

Tyra would be so proud.

Such talent.

Here you are, taking a break to teach Dad the ways of Mac…

Back to presents…

I liked how you ran out to the hallway and yelled to your friends, "We can totally play tonight! I got a volleyball!"

Tp 17

Sophie couldn't resist getting you the cat mask. Dad thought it was a sleep mask, btw.

Dads.

Tp 18

You did tell Sophie you wanted stud earrings… was this what you had in mind?

Tp 20

I suddenly want a hambuger Happy Meal.

Tp 22

Remember when Soph wanted to smell the new lipgloss you got from Meems and Pops? You could have just let her smell the tube, but noooo, you had to make her get that close to smell. (It cracks me up that she's trying not to laugh.)

Tp 23

Remember when Dad excitedly announced to you that you'd be getting eighteen presents? He said,  "You didn't get nothin' good, but you got eighteen!"

I won't even say it, but it starts with a D.

(I loved that super plush blanket, btw.)

Here you are, walking us out to the car…
