Ben's First Birthday

Ben's First Birthday - June 26th
(party - Sunday, June 25th)
After eating a wonderful lunch, Ben decided to open some gifts. He shows Rachel his new Little People Animal Farm.
Certainly, another favorite: the Bubble Mower!
(Java likes this one too!)
Ben shows Daddy how his Bubble Mower works.
"I help you mow da lawn, DaDa!"


Everyone plays in the first-ever Family Cornhole Championship

And finally, it's time for cake!

Ben gets his very own.

Green cake with blue frosting - YUM!

(to anyone looking at our blog: I can't seem to add any more pictures to this site. REALLY frustrating since the good pics of the cake-face were coming up. I'll keep trying.--- Katie)

Mommy FINALLY got to take Ben swimming for the first time today. It was such fun! Ben is a little fish in the water. He didn't want to stay in Mommy's arms. He wanted to swim away! The Wisconsin Dells should be perfect for him in August. We can't wait!

Little Benjamin Bunny
9 months old
Java, the Family Dog
Some might consider her pampered,
but we just consider her one of the family!

Grandma Karen took this picture of our family on her recent visit. None of our friends can believe that Daddy was willing to pose with bunny ears on his head. Java was the least willing to participate, but the prospect of a "greenie" convinced her to wear her pink ears for a couple of seconds.

Happy Easter!
