Good Luck, Mates!

For Benji and I, our first friends in Buffalo were Natasha and Tyler (Nick and eventually Blake). Actually, I was pregnant with Benji when we met. I remember long walks at Knox and hanging out drinking tea. Well, I am sad to say they have left us for a warmer climate in Australia! We miss you guys!

Benji and I got to spend some time with Tyler while his parents packed up the house!

We had a going away dinner that lasted way past T's bedtime. Benji was just getting revved up at 10:30! We have a whole series of pictures with B climbing on T and a video where he screams "Wake up, Ty!" T is an amazing sleeper. I'm super jealous.

Blake (who turns one tomorrow!) had his first taste of cake. I think he liked it. He ate while we got in a few games of foosball.

B has one Thomas video that he asks to watch again and again. I think he would have it on all day if I let him.

A Tribute

We lost our beloved Ginger Berry this week. She was so loved and we will miss her so much. I know Sissy is in a place where she can bird hunt all she wants and will never get tired.

Benji turned 2!

Benji celebrated his birthday with a small party at home. His party theme was "on the go". We used all types of vehicles to decorate. My favorite was a dumptruck full of kisses but B wouldn't let that happen. He had to play with the dumptruck!The kids table!

A group shot??

So cute!

A "muddy" cake with a cupcake mound. Totally the look I was going for!
