Feel the Force










We celebrated Ben’s entrance into FIVE with a Star Wars party (big surprise, huh?) at Rocky Nook Park. Ben announced that he was now an official “kid” which meant that we were now just Mom and Dad, instead of Mommy and Daddy—we negotiated keeping our original titles for special occasions.  

It was incredible to have friends and family travel into Santa Barbara for the weekend to make sure this sweet, incredible boy would feel surrounded by love and celebration for his first California birthday.  Ben is our little family man and it meant the world to him to “have my cousins, Nick and Noah, with me on my birthday.” Our hearts are grateful for another year with our sunshine, who makes every day more interesting, entertaining, cuddly and complete. 

May the Force always be strong with you, little man.
