4th of July

We enjoyed a long weekend spending time with Grandma & Grandpa Stephens, Aunt Andrea, Uncle Jim, and cousin Joshua. This was the first time Ben was really old enough to play with his cousin so it was a great time watching them!

Ben received some new toys from Joshua to play with. Here he is on the car/walker.
Ben has already spent quite a bit of time playing on this keyboard. Ben LOVES music so this toy was a hit. Thank you for sharing Joshua!
On a side note, mommy loves this picture since it shows of Ben's love of K-State. Go Wildcats!
A trip to Grandma and Grandpa Stephens' house wouldn't be complete without a tour of Grandpa's garden. Ben and Joshua took their tour in style...on Grandpa's tractor!
Daddy was able to take Ben on a quick spin.
Uncle Jim took Joshua and Ben for a spin around the house in the laundry basket. I'm sure this was no easy feat with a coubined total of 50 pounds in the basket!

Daddy said it was heavy. The boys just thought that it was a lot of fun!
The boys (all ages) loved playing with the blocks, especially the blocks grandpa made.



The boys loved watching the dogs play outside.
I just love this picture! It shows how much Ben looked up to his older cousin. Ben thought Joshua was pretty cool.
Of course there are always special treats at grandma's house. Ben tried a banana popsicle. I think the cold felt good on his gums. I think it's a matter of time until he gets more teeth in.
Here's some video from the weekend. As I upload more, I'll be sure to post them. The boys really had a great time together. We look forward to more visits!
