Last week we celebrated Ben's birthday. He had a test the next day, so that put a little damper on the party- or shall we say extended the party until the weekend. Before work Ben opened one gift which was a jar of peanut butter filled, chocolate covered pretzels (I was skeptical at first too, but they really are amazingly good), so he could have a study snack for the day. When Ben got home from work he had a dinner of his choice, brats on the grill (it was such a man dinner), opened gifts and got to see Rhone in his special shirt for the day. Then out came the chocolate caramel brownies with the best frozen vanilla custard from Freddy's (if you live where there is one you should give it a try and they have a military discount). Thanks to everyone who wished Ben a happy birthday by sending gifts, cards, or calling!
On Friday we went out to eat at the Salt Grass Steakhouse (yet another man dinner) and watched Taken. Ben has been wanting to see the movie for a while, so it worked out great for a little birthday fun. Here's to another great year for Ben.

The older Rhone gets the more I see you in him. Especially when you were a baby. I am so glad Ben had a nice birthday.
Looks like he had a great extended birthday that is a good way to do it. Love the picture with Ben and Rhone on the couch.
Happy late birthday Ben!
