The Bennison Family: 926 BBQ

Last Monday night, we had a 926 BBQ! (If you recall, 926 College Dr. was the address of the house Benny lived at in college with 7 awesome guys.) The Hanlons were in town from Florida, so the Galemas and the Daughertys all came over to our house for a fun little reunion (although we were really sad that the Farmers, Whyes, Schulers and Lustig couldn't be there!)

Aden Daugherty and Mabry Hanlon playing in the AMAZING t-shirt quilt my aunt Brenda just finished for Benny and me.

We took advantage of our new close location to AU's campus by walking over to "the Valley." Benny, with Aden on his shoulders and Jared tugging on his shorts walking through the soccer fields. (Benny is in his second of two weeks of soccer camps right now, and I was so thankful he was able to sneak away from camp for a few hours to hang out with us!)

The Valley is in the middle of the campus, has beautiful trees and a winding walkway. It also has this really fun fountain that the kids loved! Below are Cassity Galema, Mabry Hanlon, Benny, Aden Daugherty and Jared Galema.

Briley Hanlon, Mabry's precious new baby sister!

Owen Daugherty...what a great smile! He was smiling at his daddy!

Here are the kids "hiding" from Benny during a game of hide-and-seek.

The 926 Kids (minus Avery Schuler and Ella Joy Farmer): Owen, Cassity, Ryleigh, Jared, Aden, Mabry and Briley! What a fun group!

The Ladies: LA, Ryleigh, Jess, Cassity, me and Leslie.

Back at the house, Benny and Travis manning the grill.

Aden and Cassity enjoying their yummy food.

The fellas decided to squeeze around the small table in the living room to eat their dinner. (Adam, Benny, Andy and Travis)

After dinner Jared, Mabry and Aden were playing a really cute game with Travis: Trav would peek through the blinds at them while they were out on the sun porch, they would laugh, run inside and look at him in the living room, laugh, and then come back out to the porch and do it again. The kids could have played this game for hours!
