Fun Weekend

Ben had a fun weekend with the Grandmas, Grandpa & Uncle Casey & Aunt Carly.


Having his morning coffee with the Grandmas.


A quick dip in the tub so he can try out his new bath hoop!




Ben and his godparents.

Having fun with Grandma.


Visiting with Aunt Carly...his new cousin will be here in about a month!

So many new toys, so little time.

Bye Grandma...thanks for coming to spend the weekend with us!
Ben loves seeing his Grandma & Grandpa!

Everyone's gone...back to me and the pups.

It's a Party

We had another party for Ben so he could celebrate with friends!

Birthday boy waiting for his guests to arrive.

Passing out the birthday hats...


...which didn't go over very well, except for Brady! I think poor little Elsye took a hat to the face.

Elsye, Brady, birthday boy, and Presley & Mason Jacobsen

What a cool Pooh cake Grandma made!

Checking it out...

...tiny nibbles...I don't think Ben wanted to mess him up!


The hat didn't stay on long.


Grandpa getting his hands dirty scooping ice cream for everyone!
The crowd...Jaylin Morasko & finace Nate Knutson, Vinny Morasko, Ali Weedin, and Grandpa...

Laurel, Kyle, & Dane...

Uncle Casey & Aunt Carly...

Cory & Elsye...

...and Mom talking with Kendra.
Ben got lots of fun new toys!

Mason was showing Ben the ropes.





Beth & Sean spoiled Ben with this 'Lil Quad'...which he was cruising around on before the end of the night!
Pooped.

Ready to tear into some gifts...good thing Grandma Morasko brought me the toy organizer with all those bins!



Where to start...






This is a big one.


Grandma & Grandpa Begger got Ben a a bag (I think so he will pack up and go stay with them more often! :)



The Great Grandparents sent some gear for him to really get playin.




Good thing Uncle Casey was there to help with all the fort knox packaging.
