Hi Everyone!
We made it home from vacation yesterday. We went on a cruise with all of Tyler's Mom's family. There were 15 of us and we went to Alaska and Canada. It was absolutely beautiful there! We all had a lot of fun. Some of the highlights were--seeing a lumberjack show, seeing bald eagles, seeing a bear in downtown Jeauneu, seeing a glacier, finding real gold, and seeing some seals in the wild.
It was an amazing experience. Ashland loved the entertainment on the ship, and he has never eaten so much in his life. He was so well behaved the whole week...and best of all...HE ONLY ONLY HAD 2 ACCIDENTS THE WHOLE TIME WE WERE GONE! He only wet the bed one night and had one accident during the day while we were on land and weren't able to find a restroom as easily as we needed to find one. We have decided that it's time to start drinking from a "big boy" cup at home, and not have a sippy cup all of the time.
Our final big news for Ashland while on the trip is that he got to sleep in a big boy bed while on the cruise. He did so well that we have decided to put him in a big boy bed at home. He slept through the night in his big boy bed last night. Our baby is growing up...
We will post lots of pictures on flicker this week and we will post the link on here. 300 pictures is a lot to load, so give us a few days. We'll make sure it's done soon :-)
We hope you all had a wonderful and safe 4th of July. Ashland didn't have the energy to stay awake for fireworks this year, so we missed them, but they happen every year, so we didn't miss much. Back to work and daycare for all of us this week :-)
Lots of love from the Benners <3
P.S. Brooklyn, Ashland says Hi :-D

We DID have a great time, didn't we? And, you were a very good boy. I hope you remember how much fun you had and remember all of the beautiful sights we saw for many years to come.
This week has gone quickly, and it has been difficult getting back into the swing of things, but all of that is well worth it. The excitement we experienced on the plane, boat, in Alaska, and in Canada was a once in a lifetime moment for all of us. We were happy to experience it with you!
Take care and continue to be a good boy for Mommy and Daddy. We will see you in a week or so for camp. It will be just you, and me and Caleb for much of the week as G'pa will be traveling for work some of the time. But, we'll plan lots of fun things to do.
XXXO,
G'ma Benner
