Here I go again. I'm terrible at keeping things up to date. When we left off, Ben was about to be in Rocky and Lauren's wedding, which went so well and was beautiful. I have to say Ben did an excellent job, as did the flower girl, Emily. They're both under 2 years old and followed instructions like pros!
Despite the foggy lens, still an ok picture, I think. Ben and Abby got to play with Emma, but I just enjoyed 'em mostly, instead of snapping photos.
A week later, Letti and Levi had their official wedding ceremony! We walked through the doors just in the nick of time. Ben talked through the entire ceremony, but he wasn't too loud.
The weekend after that was 4th of July! We try to make sure that this is always a fun day for us because the 5th is Daddy's birthday! This year it turned out really great because we had a whole weekend to celebrate. Somehow I ended up being off work both Saturday and Sunday, and got to spend 2 whole, uninterrupted days with my 2 guys!
He got to play with his cousin, Seth, most of the day on the 4th! They got along really well, I think.
Something about this shot appealed to me. I think it was the only time they were both still. I love how they're both sitting.
After seeing some fireworks from the boat, we came back to shoot some of our own. Pop-pop and Daddy did all the work. Ben thought the up-close and personal stuff was a little too loud and bright for a really sleepy little guy, though. He fell asleep, amidst it all, in the swing with Nano!

Here are my first attempts at "real" fireworks pictures.
Other things that Ben's been up to in the mean time mainly just includes playing outside and resting up from all the action lately. He played ball outside the other day, and I got a few good shots I thought I'd include.
The rest seem kind of self-explanatory. This one not as much. He's pointing at an airplane. He's really good at spotting them.
