Home Birthday party

This was Bennett's family birthday party- as you can see he is totally stoked!

Halle is just thrilled to be here...we had to have a talk with her about the fact that this is Bennett's party- so he needs to open his presents. That is when the excitement really got going.

He wasn't excited at all for the birthday cake. It was sticky...and it was a bread product. (He is a meat lover)!

Opening presents- he really got the hang of it and started tearing the paper off. Halle was a little dissapointed that she couldn't help.

Bennett loved all of his presents!

Daddy's Helper

Bennett just loves helping his dad!

Happy Birthday Bennett!!

Happy Birthday Bennett! Today is Bennett's first birthday- he has been with our family for just a year but we couldn't imagine life without him! He brings such joy and pleasure to all of us-and adds a touch of masculinity to all the toys that we have...(helps Halle with her athletic side too)!! These are just some pictures taken throughout the year, and I will put more up of his party tonight-and his HUGE birthday party that we have planned for tomorrow night (43 guests+) we are so thankful for our little man and are excited to see what the next year brings!!






ps- if you live in the Vegas area and haven't heard about his party PLEASE email me so I can get you info!! We want to invite EVERYONE!!

Baggage Oops!

Heard this one and just had to share, this is one of those situations where you can't help but feel sorry for someone and at the same time it's hard to not laugh.

A 78 year-old woman checking in at Sweden's main airport has probably just had her worst airport experience ever.

The woman was preparing to fly from Stockholm's Arlanda airport to Germany on Tuesday.

But, unfortunately, she misunderstood some instructions while checking in and placed herself on the unmanned baggage belt, instead of her luggage!

Seriously!

Grandma was then whisked away down a baggage chute!!!!

She ended up at the baggage handling centre.

Luckily staff members were on hand to help her get up.

And, on a very good note, she suffered NO serious injuries and was even able to catch her flight to Germany.

Poor, old lady. We have a feeling she won't be flying anytime soon.

She definitely shouldn't be traveling alone!

Weekend with Dad

My dad came in town last weekend and we just had a blast with him!! He got really lucky and we hit a cold front with a high of 98 on Saturday!
My dad and Halle racing up the hill at the local park. We took my dad to the cutest park to play with the kids.

On Saturday we went to the dolphin habitat and the Siegfried and Roy gardens.

I had to get a picture with the jaguar, it was the only animal we never got to see in Africa.

So cute!
