The Birthday After Hayden's

The birthday after Hayden's was mine! On my actual birthday, we had a nice dinner at Biaggi's and then we went home and opened some presents. It was lots of fun.

But the real fun came the Sunday after my birthday. We had a friend birthday party at our local bowling alley. We all started by bowling.



Cameron probably had the most of fun of everyone bowling. He even bowled a strike.





After bowling, we had some lunch and some cake.



Then, we opened presents. I got some really nice gifts.





After presents, we headed to the arcade and played some games.


After my party, we headed over to my friend Aaron's party. His was supposed to be the day before mine, but the snowstorm caused him to move it to after mine. We still had a great time, even though everyone was very tired!

Love,
Ben

Vacation Bible School '06: Game Day Central

We had vacation bible school at church this week. We had lots of fun.

Mommy taught our class again. This was our room. It was shaped like a soccer field and a locker room.



One of our favorite rooms was the craft room. Mr. Brett and Miss Wendy always do something special and this year was no exception. They made a hockey rink out for us to do crafts in.


In the background, you can see our friend Kaitlynn and her daddy. They normally don't come to our church, but she was able to visit with us for the week.



We had a closing ceremony on Thursday night. We got up and sang songs. We also raised money during the week for an orphanage in the Dominican Republic (that's the picture on the screen).


Love,
Ben and Cameron

My Last Day of School for the Summer

Today was my last day of school. My class has shrunk in size from when we started, but here we are with Miss Dawn and Miss Gretta.

Baby Kenzie

Mommy and Daddy had some friends over for dinner last night and they brought their two daughters. I got to hold Kenzie, the littlest one.

Brandon's Birthday Party

Two weekends ago, I went to a friend's birthday party. In his thank you note, which I got yesterday, they sent a picture of all of the attendees. The color is a little washed out due to our scanner, but here it is.

My Class

Because the school calendar is a little weird here, my last class was yesterday. I get a week or two break from school, but then I'm right back at it, as all of my friends and I enrolled in the same class again.

Here is a picture of my class and my teachers.

My 5th Birthday Party with my Friends

I had my first "friends" birthday party yesterday at our house. I had seven friends from Sunday school or Joyful Noise over. It had a Cars theme.



Our first game was to play "Pin McQueen on Mack the Truck."



I didn't do so well.



Overall, my guests were pretty good at the game.



Then, after we all worked on our souvenir Cars frame craft, everybody lined up for a Lightening McQueen, Mater or Doc Hudson tattoo.



Everybody enjoyed their pizza and lemonade lunch...



Then we had some cake and ice cream...



And then we opened presents while we watched the movie. It was a lot of fun and I got a lot of nice presents.

Love,
Ben
