bryce is 17

Bryce was up early to celebrate his birthday, so he didn't have on a shirt, he had bed head and was in his glasses and retainers, so I didn't use any of those pictures, ha.  Bryce had a full day of school and baseball tryouts before meeting us all for dinner. 

Straight from baseball means no cleaning up for birthday celebrations. 

Bryce was hoarse on Tuesday after practice, but we assumed it was from running outside in the cold.  It wasn't until everyone left on his birthday (Wednesday), that I realized he was sick.  He had a sore throat, he was cold and his eyes said it all.  I took his temperature and he put himself to bed at 8:30 on his birthday with a 102 degree fever.  Poor buddy.  

He was better today to celebrate with the rest of the family after church.  Jason gets two thumbs up for making the cake!

They just keep getting bigger and bigger. 

Bryce missed school on Thursday due to his illness.  Luckily it rained and tryouts were cancelled so he didn't miss them.  He ended up going to school late on Friday since he was feeling better and didn't want to miss tryouts.  He was able to join the team on Saturday for their first scrimmage.  

Emmy went to a Special Olympics basketball game at her school on Friday.  She snapped a picture with the Caddells.  From what I hear, they're all in this picture!
