Our baby boy is 18! That’s a full grown kid – adult! We had a fun day celebrating. He got a mix of fun and pre mission gifts. His friends came over for a few hours and had cake and ice cream and he of course had to finish his cake under the table 🙂 And then, like most Benji bdays – we spent the evening in the car going camping!
It has been a joy to raise this kid. He is smart and kind. He is a hard worker and a good friend. We are so excited for his future!
Millie and Maren sold cookies and treats and drinks and stuffed animals!! Tiago and Ray and all of us went to Bro Wise’s house for a campfire dinner 🙂
We had a fun Monday night at the Scera! Abbie gave us her VIP tickets so we got to go to the pre-dinner and meet and greet! She wasn’t the best entertainer but I like her songs and I like free and I love the Hancocks and I’m in love with Ben so… it was fabulous!
Millie doing her thing. She’s not the fastest and not the slowest. She does pretty good at all the strokes.
(except I’m typing this in January 🙁 ) Ray and Tiago did early morning soccer training with Udine all week! Waking up early in the summer is brutal but these kids are up for it. And Millie is loving cooking, especially breakfast foods and using the mini appliances. Millie is also doing the swim thing!! Taco Amigo Benji! We did a backyard campfire smores night 🙂 and Ben and I were invited to Jleigh’s 30th bday party at the Salt Lake Cheesecake Factory! We had fun watching them do their thing 🙂 Summer, summer, summer time 🙂
Literally got home in time to do the laundry and send Cali and Rose off to camp!!
Girls camp is always a party…
This year was stake camp at Heber. The girls loved it. They love their friends and leaders. They said that all of the girls were so nice and they just come back giddy and full of life.
We drove home from Vegas on Saturday! We had such a great week with the kids. Cruise life was good for all of us. We had just the best few days with no chores, no cares no nothing. One of the best vacations ever.
On Sunday – we went to church and took Benji’s mission picture!! and CELEBRATED OUR FATHERS!!!
Ben got a card and gifts from his kids and we went to Matt and Jamie’s for dinner and for time with Grandpa.
Ben loved driving us to California and cruising with his kids. He literally was in heaven all week. Happy Ftahers Day to one of the BEST!
