Tanny Baby Is Growing Up

This past week my little brother Tanner (aka Tanny Baby, Tan Tan, Teeny, and a few others) got asked to Winter Formal! His first dance. . . . That means he's 16. Bleh that makes me want to throw up. . . . and cry. Tan tan has been one of my best friends my whole life. From having Lego wars- where we would make these shelters with dry erase boards and throw legos at each other, to just this Monday when our whole family decided to desert us and us being awesome decided to watch Kung Fu Panda and get Filiberto's. Arizona Burritos anyone??? Oh and I mustn't for get that while we were in the drive thru we were dancing so good to any and every song that came on the radio. Keep in mind WE ARE JONES' and as such have been cursed with having an overwhelming lack of Rhythm. It was so fun and funny. I have a million memories of teeny and most are of him being hilarious. Here are 10 Reasons I Love Tanner. . .


#1) He is the biggest smart a in our family. . . I think it comes from being the youngest and picking up on his older siblings/parents examples.


#2) He is not afraid to look like a schmuck.


#3) His eyebrows. . . they are un-tamable



#4) He is almost always willing to get me a drink




#5) He and I have the same sense of humor. . . but he is actually funny.



#6) He can quote the movie Hot Rod almost perfectly. . . and the Music Man



#7) He and I can tease each other. . . it drives my mom insane, but we are just entertaining ourselves.




#8) He can make some of the most hideous faces. . . like me.




#9) He is just too stinking cute.
(Don't mind the sunflower seeds in my dad's mouth)





#10) He is actually really nice and sweet.
(He is the one on the right pushing the handcart with the little girl on it)

. . . . .

And to think. . . this whole post was started by him getting asked to a dance. Oh how time flies. I love the kid. He's going to do great in life. This is how he got asked and him being way excited.

Yay Tanner!

I am dying! Tanner is 16! Out of control! I don't know if you know this Jenny, but Tanner used to love me. I was totally his favorite friend- maybe it was because I would play cards with him when he was like 7 or 8, but he would do anything for me and was so cute!!!
How are you? Are you liking school?
I love/miss your family so much!
When is Trevor getting married?
