Ben turned 6 on March 6th!
I'm not sure how that happened already.
He started out his day with candles on his favorite breakfast treat, chocolate doughnuts!
Ben received a Happy Birthday crown and pencil at school and his class sang to him.
Unfortunately we aren't allowed to send in birthday treats for the class in elementary school but I did have lunch with him at school.
A little after school work, Nick likes to help quiz Ben on his sight words.
Important stuff to know when you are 6!
Presents from our family!
Ben and his monster truck cake!
Ben's birthday was on Friday. It was a busy but fun weekend! On Friday we had our school carnival that our family participated in, Saturday was the Pinewood Derby for Nick and Sam. Sunday we had a birthday party for Ben and his friends!
The boys started the party by constructing monster trucks with candy and marshmallows.
Next, we had a line up of games for the kids to play...
and the finale, a Grave Digger piñata!
We served Ben's favorite foods for dinner, hot dogs, hamburgers and mac & cheese.
The boys played a little game of telephone while finishing up their hotdogs and burgers.
Happy Birthday to Ben...
More presents!
At age 6, Ben wants to be a monster truck driver when he grows up. His favorite foods are hot dogs and mac & cheese, and he loves to give hugs and blow kisses to his mom and dad. He's becoming quite a good reader, plays the piano and loves to play Angry Birds on his I Pod. Ben's favorite friends are Nick and Sam. He loves to hang out with them playing basketball and running around in the backyard. Ben also loves to snuggle with his puppies Ruby and Louise and tries to be affectionate with Annie our cat, when she feels like it!
