Benjamin's 4th Birthday

8/25/2013
4th birthday party was a sprinkler splash blast!
Benjamin's birthday was a success and we did not flood the backyard like Edmund said we would. We had a slip and slide, two splash pools, a fishing pond, a basketball shark and a big round bounce ball that the kids could get inside. We also had a bubble table and a water gun station (enjoyed maybe more by the "adult" kids of the group) The day was perfect, a little cloudy and not too hot. All our favorite friends were there, 12 kids in all. The homeade pinata was a success, I was not sure how that would go, but it worked. Benji received some awesome gifts and got most of the things on his list: Big boy legos(Aunt Susan and Grandma), a monster mutt monster truck (Papa and Nick), a remote control plane (Gramps), spiral bubble gum machine (Matthew), Playdoh construction trucks (Mama and Dada), Pen Book Reader (Grandma), and the piece de resistance, a fart blaster (Auntie CaCa).
Benji played all day, even after the kids were gone we went back out and splashed and played while Dada grilled outside. He said it was "the most awesome day" He was also loving the fact that his birthday was actually on the day before his birthday, so the next day he got another birthday! But then he wondered why he didn't get any more presents :-) Lots of giggling and smiling this day. Happy Birthday my big sweet boy!
