Time flies when you are having fun. This is Chase Culpon celebrating his first birthday in Port Neches, Texas.

Fast forward 29 years and Chase continues to enjoy celebrating his birthday with his mom.

Chase turned 30 in August 2017. Hurricane Harvey and his father’s illness disrupted planned celebrations. Family and friends finally celebrated Chase turning 30 in December at Yakiniku Futago in New York City. His father and I are proud of the man that Chase has become.
