Ben turns 9!!!

Boy 9 seems unreal! He is getting so grown up! Same sweet Ben just growing into an even sweeter young man!



Brandon explaining the treasure map....

the boys diggin'.....

the pirates found the treasure! (see if you can find Brayden in this picture, LOL)

making their pirate flag!

Ben got his first mountain bike!

He got Heelys!! He has wanted these forever!!

Ok, so here I'm sure he was wondering why he has wanted them forever! It definitely didn't come naturally for him!

Ok good old mom thought 'wouldn't it be SO fun to get the boys boxing gloves?' Now you can see the look on Ben's face here that I may have made a poor choice on this gift...


So note to self....this gives brothers a reason to hit each other!! And 9 years of frustration were unleashed on Brayden during this moment!

Ben happy birthday buddy! We love you so much and you add so many amazing things to our family! Your contagious smile, your giving heart, your concern of others and their feelings, and your sweet and gentle spirit are things that this family can't live without. We are blessed to be able to call you son and brother! We love you xoxoxo
