Happy Birthday, Bennett!

This past Friday, November 6, was Bennett's first birthday! As I am sure all new parents say this, but it is true, "We can't believe it has already been one year!" It is hard to believe one year has past since we welcome him into our lives. Over this past year, Bennett has warmed our hearts a thousand times over, made us laugh and even cry. He has already taught us much about life and wanting to be a good, positive role model for him.

...and on November 6, 2009. We could not get him to look at the camera...very busy.

This past Saturday, we celebrated Bennett's birthday with family and friends OUTDOORS at our home. The weather was unseasonably warm - a treat for the little ones to play outside. More pictures recapping the weekend are forthcoming.
