But the day is quickly approaching... when Ethan will be heading north to Michigan Tech University...
He is all grown up...
And Drake... well... he is still our little boy... our only boy... who LOVES Ethan... like a big brother :)
You see... since Drake was born... Ethan has been Drake's buddy... they have this special relationship...

| Drake holding E's thumb when he was only a couple days old :) |
"E must you always carry me!"
"I'm beating you right Ethan?"
 |
| "I have the best view from up here E!" |
 |
| "Come on E... can I shoot the gun? " |
 |
| "One day I am going to hunt like Ethan!" |
 |
| "Ethan!" (Drake laughing of course) |
 |
| "Ahhhhhh!" |
 |
| Ethan- laughing :) Drake recovering and lovin' every minute! "Just wait until I am big like you E!" |
 |
| Ethan always had time to play with me :) |
  |
| All I learned during my brief sheep showing career... I learned from Ethan :) |
 |
| "Ethan if you say this helps keep the mosquitoes away... I believe you!" |
 |
| Ethan gives the best rides... on boogie boards...piggy back... jet skis... snowmobiles... tractors... or jeep rides... :) He even use to pull me around in a baby bike cart :) |
 |
| You know Ethan.. I trust you with my life! |
 |
| "OK... If I can't drive... I want to ride with Ethan!" |
 |
| "I'm helping! I got your back E!" |
 |
| Easter Egg hunting buddies :) |
  And the most recent pic :) This is where you find Drake on a Sunday morning... sitting beside Ethan.... in whatever pew he is in... And the next few years...  at Michigan Tech University's Football Stadium! He can't wait! Here's looking at Big E's Biggest Fan :)  "Ethan... I love you man!" |
