On July 7th Presley girl turned one!! I can hardly believe I have a one year old! She is hilarious and full of personality! The perfect words to describe her are sugar and spice. She is so happy and sweet but knows what she wants! So watch out! ;)
She LOVES kids and is quite the social butterfly! She loves her cousins and always has a good time with them.
At her party we had a sweet shop for the kids, water balloons, and a giant parachute for games. She even decided she wanted to swim in the fountain! Hey, it was her party, so into the fountain she went!
It was so fun to have family and friends come to celebrate and we loved having you there! :) Thanks for coming to celebrate!

Benson Reunion 2012
We were lucky enough to go to the reunion this summer! It was so fun to see family and be in the beautiful mountains! I sure love grandpa Bensons land! It is so refreshing and peaceful up there. Presley loved it too! She loves being outside so she was in heaven. Sadly she was sick, but thankfully we had gone to the doctors right before we left for Wyoming and the doctor got her on an antibiotic and that sure helped! She was a trooper!
The last night it was rainy and chilly and I was worried about Pres. MontaFaye totally came to the rescue and offered for us to stay in her guest cabin (which is gorgeous and lovely!!) So we took her up on it and slept like angels in a toasty cabin with a wonderful fireplace right by our bed! Heavenly! Then we got up and went to the twins farewell! I still can't believe that those boys are all grown up and going on missions!! Micah, David, Stratton, and Ezra all spoke and did an awesome job. It was a great meeting and it was awesome to be able to be there and support them.
All in all the weekend was so great and I already miss being up there. And I'm so glad Presley likes camping. It is after all in her blood. ;)
