I'm 18 years old today!

 

Well as you can guess, we got a dog.  Finally my dream came true.  This has been a very eventful year besides my turning an adult.  I continued diving and pole vaulting.  I even hit a PR at 9'9".  I'll be going to the Barrett Honor's college at ASU studying Biological Sciences (Conservation Biology & Ecology).  Luckily my parents can take Bear for walks on the campus so I can still see him.  This will probably be the end of my birthday chair photos.  Can you believe I've done 18 years of this?  

I'm 16 years old today!

 

Besides being almost as tall as my Dad, there's a new Bear in the photo.  That's right we got a Yorkie mix and his name is Bear.  I also got my driver's license today and will soon be learning how to drive stick by myself.  This past year I've done Pole Vaulting and managed to clear 10'6".  I did steel drums again and have been enjoying all the cool music.  Next year I predict I'll be taller than my Dad and driving stick like a pro.
