Bennett's Birthday

Holy Cow!!! Bennett is ten years old. It seems like he was just born and now he's ten. Only two more years and he will have the priesthood, six more years he will be driving and dating, and in nine years he will be off on his mission!! O.k. maybe I'm getting a little ahead of myself. I mean look at him, he is still just a kid. A great kid! He had a really fun b-day, After school I picked up him and four of his friends, and took them out for pizza. It is really funny to just sit and listen to the things they say. ( they are holding up three fingers in the picture because they are all in webelos now) After that we came home and he opened presents from his brothers and sisters. Jason, Uncle Liberty, and I took him out later to a movie and ice cream. When we got home he opened his present from Uncle Liberty, it was a star wars game for the wii, and he played it until midnight. I finally told him it was no longer his birthday and he had to go to bed. Then Sunday, after the temple dedication, we had a family dinner and cake and ice cream with all the Erickson crew (at least all that could make it.) It was a really fun weekend, and I think Bennett felt really special.
