My computer has a virus, So I cant upload any pictures this time, but I can update everyone on our recent ventures!
A couple of weeks ago we celebrated Ben's first fathers day.
Mother's day was rainy so we went out for lunch and then spent the rest of the day relaxing at home and I did get some jewelry with Finn's Birthstone.
But because Ben has been working so hard lately, I wanted to really make it extra special. So that Saturday I kept up with Finn for the afternoon so that Ben could go do whatever he wanted. While he was gone Amy and I and Finn made Finn's card to Ben. It was sweet and involved paint and Ben loved it. Then on Sunday, I suprised him with a trip to the beach. We desperately needed to get the hell out of town for a day, so it was perfect weather for a beach trip. And since this was also Finn's first beach trip, we asked my parents to come too. It was really great to have help with Finn, especially since I didnt know how it was going to go. It was GREAT!!!!! I was able to hide underneath an umbrella tent to do our feeding thing, and Ben and Finn even took a long nap together in the shade. The water wasnt that cold, so there is a picture of Finn dipping his toes. I will upload them as soon as i'm able.
Another gift to Ben was a coffee maker. With all of his long nights and early mornings, it is coming in handy.
The last thing I did for Ben was drive to the beach and back. I know it seems like a small thing, but he drives the long drive every time and I did it so he coud relax in the back with Finn. he really appreciated that the most, I think.
It was really sweet of everyone to call and text him Happy Father's Day!
He had a phone call from Thomas, and sweet texts from our friends and even some of my friends.
I know he had a great weekend, and it was a very relaxing weekend that we havent had in awhile, and really needed.
