April

Well, I took a little break for a few months - not really on purpose, just too hard to make the time to blog when I can't just do it at home. So, last blog was about Easter. Following right behind we had Ben's birthday - HE'S 7! We celebrated by sending homemade mini cinnamon rolls to school for snack time. That morning I had kids over for ABC school, so worked on the cake the rest of the day. As you can see, it was a detailed one - more than I usually do. He got to have 2 friends over to play after school, Malcolm and Britten. They all had a grand time.

We had cake, ice cream and presents after dinner with Grammy and Papa over. He got a new scooter, aqua sand, recorder, a bike helmet and bell.

At school they had twin day and this is what we came up with for Ben and Malcolm. They were Thing 1 and Thing 2 - on the back of their shirts was a picture of the "Things".



We did the annual Teddy Bear Tea at the Library. Sarah did the sleepiest bear.

Ben did the Papa Bear. He got first place, taking home a Hot Wheels track set.

Some time in there was Arbor day. I told Ben and he ran out to hug the tree. But, stopped here when he saw the camera!
