Almost a whole month without a post

The Benson side of the family. All Mr. Mark Bensons biological children and grandchildren in one room together. My little brother ain't so little anymore. I'm trying to bridge a gap between the men, my body usually doesn't look like that.
Me and MY Grandpa! I love this mans guts.
He may not admit to liking kids but I can tell otherwise, they make for easy targets.
Not that many or any of you cared but I did a post anyway.

This is Halloween

For Halloween I was a "Working Witch" (Not that kind of "working") and Chris was a Hillbillie Devil. We joined Doug and Rheanna at Jacob and Sara's for a night of unhealthy food and "Ghost Adventures" Two words..Great Show! It really was a bunch of frat boy drop outs acting like idiots. Was very entertaining though. If you enlarge the picture you can really see the Hillbillie and my awesome earrings!
My costume in full. I was in full get up the day before for my works "Shed or Treat" We decorated the sheds we sell and every department had their own themed shed. Ours was "Witches and Spiders." Makes sense since we're a bunch of females. We gave out hot chocolate in our shed and ran out of 200 packets in an hour and a half. We weren't expecting such crowds considering it was cold and rainy. Great fun!

Doug has no righ to talk

You haven't posted since July....
Anyway what have we been up to.
I got a weekend off without even asking for it and we decided to go camping. It was absolutely beautiful. I would have posted pictures of our little trip but I got our camera out to take some and the batteries were dead. It was so cold that night that we ended up sleeping in the back of the jeep, which wasn't all that comfortable but at least I could feel my toes in the morning.
Last week we took the BMW out for a little trip and decided to hit up the "Red Iguana" because it was on "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives", and we were disappointed. We have decided to try one more place we saw on the show before we come to the conclusion Guy is a liar. We'll let you know how that goes.
Really we're not exciting people and that is why there hasn't been any posts.
I still work for the man at Depot and Chris fills out a trillion applications a day.
We still love teaching the sunbeams and have one little boy who reminds us of Aaron.
See like I said, we are boring.
Maybe you'll think twice next time before asking for another post.
(The pictures are old if you couldn't tell. Just found them chillin on the laptop)

July so far

On the third my sweetie turned the big 33! We went to breakfast and walked around Provo Center Street for the Freedom Festival and just enjoyed each others company.

Having a colitis attack. Can you tell how much he loves them? This was the day after the Fourth when we party hartied. For the Fourth of July I worked until about nine that night came home ate some leftovers and watched the neighbor across the street set off fireworks until Doug and Rheanna joined us. We then went inside and played Electronic Life for a few hours. They brought some Strawberry shortcake for dessert and that was pretty much my fourth. We love Doug and Rheanna when they come for playtime. Chris' day was a bit more eventful, he was able to go to the Freedom Festival Parade in Provo and hang out with his family earlier in the day while I worked.

My handsome husband receiving his Diploma from his Captain.
(Yesterday, July 9th)

Giving the commencement speech. I took so many pictures of him and in not one was he looking at the camera or had his eyes open. Although he did look up. He did so great it was a wonderful speech I wish I would have taken my video camera but I don't think too much ahead of time. He was voted by his class to give it and it was a good decision. I cannot tell you how great it was, you should have been there. And in true Chris fashion he had people laughing.

His two new best buddies aka "brothers" Miranda and Weight. They go by last names. They'll soon all be bonded by ink.

He got two extra rewards. One for being class leader and one for making the Directors List. Which I believe, only three people got. The Directors List is for those who scored 90 or higher on all tests and quizzes. My sweetie is such a smarty pants. There is one giant gold star missing in this picture because the Captain forgot it. I'm so proud of him. Yes, they gave him the knife as a reward.

My handsome husband and me...the proud wifey.
