HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY ...

A favorite picture from the weekend ... Benjamin reading to Jonathan Sunday morning before church ... our new ward starts at 1:00!

We spent this past weekend at our new house in Cumming, GA. I don't want to say HOME -- because it definitely didn't feel like home yet! The blow-up matresses we borrowed from the Winn's were PERFECT though - and definitely beat REALLY camping out on the floor! It was fun to celebrate Jonathan's birthday ... and be together for the weekend. I was able to buy a few things and get the house a little in order for when we move next Month. Here are a few birthday pictures:
Benjamin helping put the candles on...
Benjamin and Jonathan blowing out the candles ...
(and YES ... that is SMOKE from the 29 candles!!)
Jonathan helping BENJAMIN open birthday gifts!
All in all it was a WONDERFUL weekend. Benjamin had a great time at his cousin Mary's ... thanks a 100 MILLION Sarah ... and Joanthan and I were able to go to the Temple before the baby arrives!

We totally lose points for not wishing Jonathan a happy birthday! Thanks for letting Benjamin play with us. I needed plenty of extra company with Paul's awesome hours lately =). Benjamin talked ALL about your new house, and kept asking me where our pantry and our garage was. He seriously didn't believe that we don't have either. Hopefully your new house has BOTH. We can't wait to come visit. Let us know when you need help moving!

Rachel, you are T-I-N-Y. You're having a baby in 6 days?

Your house is so cute. I'm so happy you guys were able to get some stuff ready before the baby comes.

I can't wait to meet him!
