The big 10!!

Jordan has hit the double digits! I can't believe how old he is, I feel young until I think about Jordan - then I feel old.
For his big day we took him and a couple friends kayaking - one of Jordan's favorite things to do. Though the weather was overcast and jackets needed it was a great day. Julio and I got in "too deep" traveling further than our bodies should have. We kayaked all the way to the Downtown cove on Lake Union, we passed plenty of boats and saw a handful of sea planes take off and land. The Space Needle and skyline was an amazing backdrop.
Since Jordan was born around Memorial Weekend, we always have problems with travel plans on end of school activities. But this year was the big 10 so we celebrated from Friday to Monday. Everything the boy wanted he got, and the best part for me - he is very considerate and asks in moderation.
As for presents he got Mario Kart on the Wii and a guitar. I am not sure when the lessons will begin, but needless to say that will be an adventure.

I can't say enough how proud I am of Jordan - he really is turning into an individual with great character. This last Saturday we went to a baseball game. At the end, a man who sat next to Jordan leaned over to me and said, "You have an outstanding son, so polite and well behaved - well done."
As for the pictures - the first one is self-explanatory, the second one is a group picture with his friends on our trip and the last one is the game we went to this weekend (Los Marineros won on Salute to Latin American Beisbol Day).
