Thank you all so much for the Texts, Cards, Packages, Comments, Videos, Emails, Tweets, Pokes, Likes, Pats on the Backs, Wet willies and all other mediums that were used to pass along well wishes.
One of the Best things about this Birthday was my Birthday buddy. Marybeth has been that buddy for the last couple of years and she has been great. But there is something about someone that can fit just perfectly on your lap and helps you open your presents. That was a great joy of mine to have Bennett right there with me every step of the way


I was told that this Jumbo Tennis ball was picked out by Bennett himself (too bad it wasn't aWii or something like that). I must say it was the present that got the most use thus far. It is a perfect ball to roll with Bennett or to toss back an forth with Marybeth in the house while we chat.

This next present was fun for a couple of reasons. Most importantly the very fun and homeade wrapping paper. Mb had some extra butcher paper from a work project and put it to good use.


If you couldn't tell what those cute little blue spots were, they are Bennetts cute little footprints. Marybeth had Bennett practice his walking and had a cute design as well. Underneath the great paper was a Bike rack for the Car. So now we are 100% set and ready for many bike rides. As I said to many of you yesterday now all we need is "Good Weather." I think that on Bennett and Robbie days we will go on a Bike ride everytime.
Bennett and I met up with Marybeth for lunch at work, and then when she got home we went out to eat a new place down the street from where we live. It is called Joey Garlics Pizzaria, We have had many talk about it but have never been so we took the opportunity to do so last night
Bennett really wanted some pizza but he settled for some cheerios. All in all it was a great day. Marybeth did a great job making me feel so loved, as did many of you. I better enjoy this year, b/c as Jason and Stefanies card read "next year I will be old!"

  1. What a fun, fun birthday. Marybeth and Bennett are surely great birthday buddies. Loved the footprint wrapping paper... that seems like one may not want to tear it. Great gift for the bike rack. We will be anxious to see it in action. Glad to see you had a great day. Looks like Bennett will be excited and into-it for his own birthday in a few months.
