Back in June, Jonas turned 12! For several weeks before his birthday, he schemed and planned about what he wanted to do for his big day. Lucky for him, his big day coincided with some appointments we had for Jared and MaKenzie in Cincinnati. So, he got to tag along with us and stay in the hotel with the swimming pool!
He turned in his "day out with Dad" card from his Christmas coupon booklet and redeemed it for a Legend's game. (Look how TALL this young man has gotten!) 
He and Jared both got game balls to take home, courtesy of a couple of gentlemen who sat down on the foul line.
For his birthday dinner, he chose Skyline Chili! What else would we expect???? It's his all-time favorite!
(Here he is, shovelin' it in!) Surprisingly he wasn't able to quite get it all in.
For weeks, we'd all been excited about the new Cars movie coming out. My sweet young man was excited because he knew how much Jared would enjoy the movie, so he asked if he could redeem his "Day out with Mom" coupon to take them to see Cars II. We all enjoyed it!
For his actual birthday cake once we were back home, he asked me to make a chocolate mayonnaise cake with powdered sugar on top. His favorite part of that celebration was having his cousins there to help him celebrate!
Happy Birthday my sweet, generous boy--even if you ARE taller than your momma!
