Happy Birthday Ben!
It is always a whirlwind before Ben's birthday but this year we threw in a trip to the coast to play in the sand for New Year's. We played too long as it was a beautiful day and got home late last night. So this morning before 8am Church we threw him his birthday presents...not even wrapped...to open before we left. I was going to do it after but forgot he was getting a new suit, shirt, tie and shoes so he would need them. Poor kid but he has been to the beach twice for his birthday so he can't complain too much. I can't believe he is 14! He loved riding the quad on the hills and even drove a sand rail around the parking lot. He was all smiles! We are about the same height but as fast as he is growing I know it wont be long before he passes me, as it should be. Just as long as he doesn't think he doesn't have to listen anymore. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

What an awesome celebration for a 14 year old.Soooo happy your vacation was such a success and everyone had fun. Not only is Ben getting tall but his voice is squeaking less and just getting lower.
