Benjamin’s Birthday Cake

Benjamin’s Birthday Cake


Benjamin turned one. We had a family party with just Mommy, Daddy, Nathan, and Benjamin. The cake was delicious. Ben loved it.

I tried to stream it live online. Here is what Ustream recorded.

Benjamin’s First Birthday

I can’t believe it’s been a whole year since Benjamin was born! He’s grown so much in a year. We don’t have a huge plan for his first birthday since Janell was just in Florida. They had a combined celebration for Nathan and Benjamin while they were there.

We will eat cake, play a lot, and have lots of fun as a family. In the meantime, here are two videos from Ben’s first day.

Nathan’s Birthday Piñata

It’s not a birthday party in Mexico without a piñata. So we got a Buzz Lightyear piñata for a little party we had for Nathan at our house with some missionary friends and seminary students. It matched his Buzz Lightyear candle we bought and put on his cake.

Here are the pictures:

Benjamin and Ice Cream

We had to go to the U.S. Embassy today to renew our passports, so we also visited our new ihop and topped it off with Ben and Jerry’s ice cream at the mall.

I did get some tests graded, too, so the day wasn’t all fun and games.

Here’s a quick video of Benjamin eating an ice cream cone today at Ben and Jerry’s free cone day:
