May Odds and Ends (Mostly Ben)

Ben was asked to Inclusion Prom!

This was our response...

I had fun making some flowers for Brooklyn

I had his brothers come get a picture with him before he headed out on his first date :)

We dropped him off and got some pictures of him and his date Brooklyn Brand.

I hope to one day receive the professional pictures they assured me would be taken!

Andy and I went and saw a movie after we dropped him off.

About 30 or 40 minutes before we were supposed to pick him up we got a text from his teacher saying we could come get him any time because he was acting like he was done :)

They said he had a good time though!

Ben has a good friend named Sam.

Ben and I went to visit Sam one day at his house.

We ended up in his bedroom and Ben started collecting all kinds of fun things.

I knew that would be a problem when it was time to go.

It was but after some stealthy strategies, a battle and some physical manipulation I was able to get him back in the car.  Ben still talks about it (in his own way of course :)

 May was a busy month at the flower studio!

Here are a couple of memorial day arrangements I did...

And then I think the one on the left was a birthday and the one on the right was a funeral request.

We were given the circular metal thing in the middle to incorporate and so I suggested a wreath and was given the assignment to design it :)  It was kind of fun!

We had a combined meeting for 5th Sunday and I pulled out my camera at one point to try and keep Ben happy.

I realized this was his last day as a 16 year old :)
