Birthday Party #3 (and a game)

We celebrated Ben's birthday on the actual day. It was nice to have it just be the 4 of us. We had lots of fun playing with Ben's toys and watching him enjoy himself. I still have a hard time believing that he is already four. It feels like I just had him. He is such a great boy and he has so much passion for life. I can't wait to see what the next year will hold for us.

Here is Ben playing with is new harmonica. He loves it and plays it quite well. Maybe that will be his future :)Josh got Ben a play mobile hunting set. Ben thinks it is so fun to have the hunter "shoot" the animals.

Jacob loves playing with Ben's new "cross" sticks

Today (Sunday) we took the boys to the tigers game. It was a really hot day but we had lots of fun. We had decided that we would go early and let Ben ride the rides and get his face painted if he wanted.

The boys on the Ferris wheel!

Ben getting his face painted. He was so good and sat so still!

The finished result: a blue tiger

We got Ben this cool pennant that he could color by himself. He did a great job and was happy to show off his work.
