well, what one year old can do without a first birthday party? How about one like the new TLC program about outrageous kid parties? Surely the beer and hot dogs were all for him :) While the weather did not exactly cooperate (no rain but overall cold with just a short sun break), we had a little party for Ben on Saturday morning. It was great to know that our house can easily accommodate 20 peeps when they flow between inside and outside. I realize that our house keeps improving a bit with each party. At the first party we hosted in our home (an ugly sweater party no less) we had no baseboards, an ugly kitchen, horrid floors, a raw old chimney (meaning old brick with the facade removed) and a piece of plywood for a dining room window.
Big improvements with the majority of the backyard complete (still need a new deck, a few plants and maybe an even/level grass area) and 90% of the main living space done. Here are a few pix! Happy Birthday to our big boy Ben!

check out the super old deck in the foreground-it's missing half its rail |
