How time flies!


So yesterday, April 26th, Hunter Jacob turned 18! I can not believe it... it still seems like he should be curly headed, dressed up in his BATMAN costume and standing at the end of the sidewalk waving to all the neighbors! Time flies... he is 18, graduating from high-school and about to sail into the next chapter of his life!
To celebrate his birthday I took him and his "work buddies" a healthy breakfast... DOUGHNUTS!!! Well not so healthy, but I do not think that they minded.
The celebration continued... we went to the "All My Rowdy Family" concert in Shreveport, La. SO MUCH FUN! Last night Hunter was able to put a BIG check on his "bucket list," seeing Lynyrd Skynyrd!!! If you know Hunter at all, you know he thinks they are the BEST. It was so much fun to watch him... watching them!!! Of course, I had a teary moment -- one of the first songs Hunter ever played on his guitar was "Tuesday's Gone." It is one of this favs. When they played it last night and Hunter's face lit up with so much "WOW," it was all I could do to hold back the "happy" tears. :) I just love that kid!!!
I can not write about last night without mentioning, Hank Williams Jr. I have now seen him twice, OH MY GOSH! He is such an entertainer! He is none stop and a one man show! Hank is so talented, not only vocally, but the various instruments that he plays and lets not forget his impersonations. If you ever get an opportunity to see him, without question GO, GO, GO! I hope that I get another chance!
All in all, I think "Precious" had a great birthday! One to remember for sure!!! Happy Birthday Bud!
