Happy Birthday, Bennett!

Bennett is our caboose and what a great way to finish!



6 months...he has eyes to die for! (and they still work!)



3 years...always trying to keep up with the big kids and doing a good job!


Kindergarten...



10 years...

Bennett loves babies, animals, National Geographic, and ME!

He is always so kind and considerate to others and never forgets a "thank you".
(He even told me "thank you" for this post!)

Bennett is also very obedient and wants to do what is right. He is often the one to remind us to pray and read our scriptures.

Last night when Grandma and Grandpa came over to give him his birthday money, before they had even left, he had his tithing counted and the slip ready to turn in to the bishop.

He is a wonderful example to all of us!
He got a fishing pole for his birthday and an early morning fishing outing with just Dad!

Although he didn't make a catch, we sure did when he became a part of our family!

We love you, Bennett! Happy 11th Birthday!
