Happy 21st Birthday Jakob! I know it seems like you've been waiting an eternity to take your first drink! :)
I think your year leading up to this birthday has been a pretty good one. Turning 21 finds you in your senior year of college, having transferred to UNL from NWU to continue your civil engineering degree.

| Our waitress, who knew you both from school was so excited to learn that you had gotten engaged this day and brought out a bottle of champagne for you to celebrate. No one could even think of spoiling it by telling her that you weren't yet 21. |

| Proposing to your beautiful girlfriend on her 21st birthday! |
 |
| It was a joy to watch you play your last year of football. |
 |
| Perhaps despite your age at any stage you will remain a kid--especially when brothers are involved. |
I was happy to have these photos captured by Double 6. It has been so much fun to watch you play for the last ten years. I know these years have brought you great memories, friendships and experiences.
Happy birthday Jakob! It happened to be that you were home on your day, so we got to bring you breakfast in bed perhaps one last time!

| Enjoying the Husker game on your day with Uncle Cash and Aunt Annie in seats right below you! What are the chances?? |
You are the one who we've celebrated most milestones with first. We are so glad you were born, so proud of the man you've become and looking forward to celebrating many more milestones with you as you prepare to being a whole new part of your life.
 |
| You're a really great big brother...even when your signature is antagonizing everyone. |
