June 2010

June: Began as it has for the last six years (seven, really): with Ben's birthday. He had a good day(s). He is a love of a child - almost always a smile on his face and makes any situation a good time. It is certainly a more festive house with him in it. The pics on this first page are all related to the "Red Snapper's" birthday (that's the name Marc gave him because he's always walking around snapping). The kids respective schools finished mid to later in the month. And, finally, our summer began!

So, here are some pics from June:

I love this pic because it looks like they're just chillin', enjoying each other.

The five of us on Ben's 6th birthday

 
Everyone is excited for Ben's presents.


Earlier in the evening, we went to Ben's choice of restaurant - which,
of course, was Chuck E. Cheese. Michael enjoyed playing the football game.


Ben celebrating with his class. Kate was proud to sit next to her "budder!!"


The party never stops! Ben with friends a few days later at his party - which was at a nearby
mini-golf place.


Blowing out the candles with his special, self-made "birthday hat"

Ben takes mini-golf pretty seriously. Others thought it was like hockey,
or baseball... We're thankful no one got hurt.

Kate golfed too. Don't think Grandpa John would approve of her form though...
