Jake-The Engineer

Don't forget about the FREE Scentsy pot giveaway in this post! 

Last Sunday Cody got called in to work so Jake and I got up and went to church!  (For those of you that don't know Jake will be a rock star one day. I'm not certain he isn't already one. Anyway- he would rather watch CMT and GAC videos and strum his guitar that any cartoon that comes on! He has a bar stool he sits on with his guitar in front of the TV and will play for hours. He has figured out YouTube and that you can actually put the song you want in there and it will play rather than waiting all day for Water, Rain is a Good Thing, Farmer's Daughter, and any Blake Shelton song just to name a few of his favorites. Needless to say, Cody and I are constantly running back and forth to the computer to type in a new song for him!) Jake has been asking for a real microphone for about a year now. He has specifically asked for one that will reach his mouth as he sits on his bar stool so he can hold his guitar and not have to worry about holding the mic. I have hesitated getting one for my own sanity purposes. I have completely lost it this Christmas because he will be getting an electric guitar and a microphone! So, as I am getting out of the shower on Sunday I see him in the living room in his usual spot in front of CMT with his guitar. But then I notice something....He has "engineered" the microphone just right. He took a pistol case that he plays with and slipped the mic in it. The case has a clip on it that he clipped right on his guitar stand so it is perfectly level with his mouth!! I snuck in and got a pic with my phone:

I tried to get this pic flipped but ugghhhhh.I'm annoyed!


















When he sees me out of the shower he runs in the room and tells me he needs paper and a pen. Of course I ask him what for and he responds he needs to write his songs.

  1. Wow...looks like you do have a little rock star on your hands...how awesome is that!! Jase has asked for a drum set and a guitar this year. He will use anything for drums...he loves it! His grandpa is getting him one of those paper jam guitars, but we are going to hold off on a drum set until his birthday...budget overload at this point.
