Birthday and Thanksgiving Week

This week has been tons of fun! On sunday Jacquie and I went up the mountain to Grandma and Grandpa's house and had a wonderful early Birthday dinner. Grandma's cooking was amazing as usual.

On my Birthday (monday) I worked all day. When I came home from work I found my bed all "Happy Birthday'd out"! Jacquie had come over while I was at work and decorated my bed and gave me boxes of my favorite cereals. It was a good birthday :D

Thanksgiving day was a lot of fun... turkey bowl in the morning... Ham and turkey dinner at Grandma's in the afternoon... and Extra sleep in the evening. It was a blast all around.

Ben's life in Oregon

Recently I decided to move from beautiful South Carolina to Oregon. Aaron and I packed up my little Saturn and drove 3000 miles to our childhood stomping grounds. It was a fun trip and we got to stop in Provo and hang for a day with some of the coolest people ever.

A ton of things have happened over the past two months here in Oregon. I have grown and learned a whole lot of things. It almost feels like being a missionary all over again... learning a lot of things real quick.

Right now I am working two jobs... During the day I work for a company that designs and builds shelters for weather testing and cell tower electronic equipment. In the evenings I work at a nice restaurant as a busser/host/expo. Between the two jobs I work about 60 hrs a week.

That's a super brief update on me and my life... check this space in the near future for more updates!
