The Max Man Update

Max has really grown up lately. He is becoming such a big boy! We just celebrated his 4th birthday! I can't believe how fast he is growing up. Max wants to be our extreme sports man. Granny got him a skateboard for his b-day and all the safety gear that you could imagine. He loves it. He has been riding it non-stop. Instead of a birthday party this year Max decided he wanted snowboarding lessons instead. I agreed not know A: how hard it would be to find lessons for a 4 year old (all the resorts on Mt. Hood don't start until age 6) and B: How much private lessons would cost when I found an instructor who would teach a four year old. With this new instructor though Max will most likely be funding Mom and Dad's retirement. There is this really cool camp called Windells up on Mt. Hood (they even have camp for adults, and yes now Trent wants to go to camp too!) and Max will be working with the same instructor who helps out the Flaming Tomato during the summer! He is so excited to start and we are thinking that will be in March. Max loves going to Primary this year and loves being a Sunbeam! After his first Sunday he showed us all how to be reverent that night and continues to remind us all how to be reverent during family prayer. Max loves going to school and playing with his friends. He even has a girlfiends named Isabelle from school. Max gets advice from Mika every morning if Isabelle will like his outfit and has her write loves notes to her to take to school. He even wants to bring her flowers and jewelry. Trent and I are still not sure were he got that idea from lol. Another big thing for Max was getting his hair cut. He has many friends with longer hair and wanted to have it like theirs. I have been begging him to get his haircut and when Granny came he decided to get his hair cut (because I told him Granny liked his hair better short!) I must say though he looks a million times better with his hair shorter.
