Birthday and First day of School  

Posted by Colleen

Here's some pics of Ben's birthday party and his first day of school:



His 3 cousins slept over the night before. He is the one on the right

Here is the awesome pirate ship cake that I made out of cupcakes



Here he is in his pirate get-up next to his cake


This is him opening his presents (his favorite part). The black thing on his forehead is an eyepatch


All ready for Kindergarten in his brand new shoes (See previous post for Jared's rant about these shoes)


Walking to the bus stop



Here comes the bus! (finally) We waited for like 20 minutes. Ben kept asking "When is the bus going to be here!?!" and Lydia kept running off. The next day we didn't go so early.

Funny story is that when we went to pick him up that first day, the bus driver pulled up and said he had dropped him off at another stop! I was really upset, but some nice neighbors took him to our house for us and he was ok.
