XANDER'S 13TH BIRTHDAY

Our 5th Grandson Xander McKnight Gonzales celebrated his 13th birthday on March 21, 2022.  Xander was not feeling that well due to hitting his head on his bed the evening before.  We did an early celebration on Saturday March 19th, whereas we let Bo Jangles do the meal for us; a take-out 8 piece chicken meal with sides of dirty rice and mac and cheese.

Lisa, Xander's Mother ordered a cake from Food Lion, but she could not pick it up until March 20th, therefore we had the early birthday celebration without the cake.

Below is pix of the cake:

The cake is ready for Xander to blow out the two candles representing 13 years!

Xander is getting ready to blow the candles out.

Mission accomplished and we all enjoyed some of the cake.  I cut way back on "sweets" a year or two back and the icing was super sweet to my taste buds being deprived of sugar; sweet and low doesn't count with my hot tea...........grin if you must!

Xander is a tender hearted young lad and has a compassion for wanting to help others which is a fantastic personality trait to possess and I am very proud of him.

Below is a favorite pix of mine taken on his 1st birthday while we were visiting with his family in Texas, whereas they later moved to North Carolina.

That boy has done some tremendous growing since that 1st birthday party!

Here is another favorite pix of mine:

Xander doing some type of Yoga and I appear to be "brain dead".....grin if you must!

Xander was a bundle of energy and didn't slow down too much.

Xander and his sister Lily are a joy to my bride and myself and enjoying watching them grow up, which seems very fast to us.
