Labor Day Adventures

We have had a long exhausting weekend.   I think I finally crashed after it all at about 7:30 last night.

Friday we started off early after dropping the boys to school we went straight to the lake.

Had lots of fun with my sister, Shenelle and Seth.  Im not a fan of lake water but it was really refreshing!




Saturday was little 5 points to meet up with a friend for lunch, I always love the vibe down there, minus the massive population of homeless people that keeps on growing.

Then to my friends wedding reception.  He had the wedding in Jamaica, reception here.  Was good to see everyone again and eat some really good Jamaican food! Yummmm, Im still thinking about it!

(The pic is dark because my camera was dying so the flash wouldn't work)



Sunday, of course being that it seems like the absolute end of summer made sense to do the lake again!! A friend invited us on his houseboat so we spent the day out there.

 (Waiting for the shuttle)





The kids went CRAZY! They had their 2 favorite things, hot tub and water slide.








John and the kids disappeared most of the time, I think I heard something about 007 missions... I was called to come and witness some of them! lol.  They had so much fun together.

I actually made it out kayaking, yay me! Look at my not so little baby bump! Lol I saw this pic and was like, woah!!! Huge! Clothes definitely makes it seem smaller!







Then back home.  I fell asleep in the car and didn't get up till... well, just a few hours ago! Now time to go entertain these boys for the rest of the day!!  Hope you are all having a great holiday as well!!

We have an ultrasound in the morning, so exciting! Can't wait to see Baby Benham again!!!

Speaking of excitement, did I mention that about a month ago I got Taylor Swift tickets??? AHHHHHHHH!!! It is just sinking in now because it is less than a month now, I am SO excited! I absolutely LOVE her music and know every word to every song.  And who has the pleasure of coming with me you ask?? JOHN!! lol.  He's such a trooper and I love him!

Mr. and Mrs. John Benham!!!

This is the moment we have both been waiting for for years! It was perfection. Nothing short of magical. We had quite a bit of time after getting ready, there were so many emotions, so happy I laughed, so happy I cried. I love these photos and am so happy that every moment was captured.  Can't wait to see the professional ones!                                 Waiting for the go ahead                                         It's time!!                              Everyone ready to come down                                                               Mummy 1st     With this ring...   You may kiss your bride! Ethan is a true romantic.  Whenever we watch movies with happy couples he always says that they are me and John.  For years he has been talking about us getting married. After the ceremony when we came in he was crying.   He said he tried to hold it in as long as possible...                      

Jamaica: How We Surprised The Boys/Video

I have so much going on that I am actually getting things done quicker (you know how that goes). So here are the pics of our last evening and the Vacation video!! Jamaica 2013 from Rebecca Benham on Vimeo . My friends came over after the family pics and we had so much fun reminiscing and catching up. I miss these girls so much, we have so many memories together.

Beautiful Baby Shower

This past weekend was our baby shower!!  We decided to do it a bit early because I am one of those over-organized, over-prepared types.  It was hosted by my best friend Kindle and my sister Bianca. I told Kindle I wanted a slight winter wonderland pink theme since it is so close to Christmas and this is what I walked in to! It was absolutely beautiful, and we were joined by all our best family and friends, we appreciate everyone that made this such a special day for us.  This game was to guess how big I was and believe it or not the winner was Ethan!! He definitely knows his Mummy!  The chocolate diaper game. (It was Johns first shower, he must've thought we were all crazy).  Getting ready for presents!! (The boys got to open them all).  Kindle surprised the boys with a gift each. It was a shirt with their picture saying "I'm the biggest Brother" and "I'm the big Brother" for the hospital. Most thoughtful thing ever!!! I wish I could relive
