Young Man

Today Connor turned 12 years old!  We love having him around.  He's such a great kid!

 We celebrated yesterday because Chris is working out of town today.  We went to see "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 1"  It was a good movie.  We also had a yummy dinner of roast beef, mashed potatoes and gravy, his favorite.  Then we ate cheesecake.

This is a picture from when Connor was about 2 1/2.  Such a cutie!  He has changed so much! Still cute though.
