Birthday Boy

For those of you who keep track of special days, last Saturday was Ben's birthday! We are on the activities committee at church and the 13th was the ward Christmas breakfast. So there was no sleeping in for the birthday boy. I got up early and made him blueberry pancakes with homemade blueberry syrup. I woke Ben up and told him that he needs to shower or he wont shower before we go out. So he showered and then I woke Cynthia up and She helped Daddy open up his presents.

Cynthia finger panted in coloured icing sugar for her present to Daddy

Then Ben shared his blueberry pancakes with a little monster who claimed she had to eat what Daddy was eating.


After breakfast, we went to the breakfast with the ward. After that we dropped Cynthia with the baby sitter and we went to movies. The funny thing about it is that Ben chose to watch Twilight for his birthday date becuase he knew that I wanted to watch it. So I got to watch Twilight for Ben's birthday date - I really am not a selfish person!

Hollywood Video called and said that Ben got a free movie rental because of his birthday, so we went to there and got another movie - Horton Hears a Who. Cynthia helped Daddy pick it out. He gave her two options and she picked one, he did that three times and she picked the same one three times. Then we went home to have some 'cake.'

This is an over view of what it looks like. When we first met I made Ben a train out of graham crackers and icing for Valentines day. So I made Santa's train this time. The house is Santa's work shop. The ginger bread men are holding 26 candles as run way lights and Santa is on the run way asking Rudolph is guide his slay tonight. And the big green spot at the other end of the run way is Cynthia's hand print to say that she helped. So here are some different angles of the 'cake.'





Finally we have Ben and Cynthia blowing out the candles.

I hope that you had a great day Love! You are the best!
