Happy Birthday Ben!!!!

First of all, Saturday was Ben's 26th Birthday, so I want to start off the post with everyone wishing him a very Happy Birthday!!!!

Friday night we had a dinner party with all of the girls in my Bible Study and our husbands. We just finished to 1st book in our study & are moving to a new Beth Moore study & wanted to get together socially with our husbands to hang out since we all like each other so much!
We had a great turnout and so so so much food.

Saturday morning we loaded up and went to the Farm and were joined by Ben's entire family. Ben's grandmother even came down to spend a week or so with all of us and surprise Ben for his birthday. After the last weekend we spent at the farm, Ben decided it was exactly what he wanted to do again for his day!

Ben rode the tractor & cut grass

we watched Harper have a good time

Sunday we did a little more of the same before Ben's mom fell & broke her foot, so we decided to start packing up the house & head back home then. We got back to Mobile & ate dinner & had more celebration at my parents house... before finally making it home, to a house without cable or Internet (sigh)....

I love you Ben & hope you have a wonderful 26th year!!!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
