Happy Birthday Jarom!!!

Jarom, Happy Birthday buddy! I can't believe you are already 11. It was just a few years ago when I remember you were born. I know Kyler probably warned you about what happens to you when you turn 11 by your Uncle Bryan. Well he is right. Jarom, I want to encourage you to get your Eagle before you are 13 and 10 months. I have a nice juicy steak dinner waiting for you. I might even be able to make it a little more juicy since I haven't had to pay to any of my other nephews. So I will raise the award for you. Steak dinner at Maddox - what ever size you want plus $25 in Cash if you are an Eagle scout by 13 and 10 months. I am here to help you anyway you want but will only help if asked. When I ask you how you are doing, I will only be asking to find out if I need to start saving my money. :-) Actually, it is because I am truly interested in your scouting success. The other real reason is that all the young men that I have been associated with that earned their Eagle also went on a mission.

Here is my top 11 things I look forward to seeing you accomplish:

Earn your Eagle Scout
Be ordained to the Aaronic Priesthood and become a Deacon
Become a Teacher
Become a Priest
Earn your Duty to God Award
Graduate from High School
Graduate from Seminary
Receive Melchezidek Priesthood and be ordained an Elder
Go on a mission
Graduate from College
Get Married in the Temple

Once you get these tasks done we can talk about others. :-)

Also, I would like to see if you can beat me in Racquetball. It is the only sport I might have a chance. :-)

We love you Jarom and are excited to see you grow up! Make us all proud!

Love, Uncle Bryan
