Railing and Ben's Birthday- 33 1/2 weeks.

We're getting a railing!! We have really steep stairs in our house, and there hasn't been a railing for them since we remodeled. It's been fine until now. It's getting scary walking up and down the stairs without something to hold on to. So Jeff came over last Saturday and helped Ben start the railing. It looks really nice, and makes me feel so much safer. Thanks boys!
This is Ben's Godmother Olive- she's a doll. This was taken on Easter after church. Ben and I pick her up every Sunday from the nursing home to go to church. She was never married, or had any children, so she considers Ben to be her Grandson- that's what she tells everyone at the nursing home.

Last week, we had some friends over for Juicy Lucies- Ben's new fav! It's two hamburger patties with the cheese in the MIDDLE of the two patties- not on top. Well, Ben still put cheese on top too. Anyway, they were really good but the highlight was getting Katherine and Noah to kiss. IT WAS ADORABLE! Noah kept getting shot down by Katherine, although he really wanted to kiss her.


33 1/2 weeks.



Yesterday, April 20, Ben turned 27 years old. After he got home from work, we drove to Rochester and did some shopping at Dick's Sporting Goods for some golf clothes. Then we went to Newt's- a great burger joint in Rochester. It was good, but we were both way too full when we got home. It was a low-key night, but we enjoyed spending some time together. Happy Birthday Ben.

you are looking really great, Bekki. good plan on putting on the railing. It gets a bit scary when you can't see your feet and walking down stairs. Love the pic of Noah- looks like he's got her cornered there.
