Ben's 4th birthday

For Ben's birthday we invited everyone to Chuck E Cheese. It was totally crazy. There were so many people there. But Ben loved every minute of it. He just kept putting tokens in every machine he passed. It was crazy. But he was sad when we finally had to leave after 4 hours. He loved having most his friends and family there, and loved his presents. He had to open everything and play with them all day today. I don't really have any pictures of it because he was moving so fast it was hard to catch anything but his back.
Ben wanted a dalmation cake. So this was the best I could come up with. But he loved it, and it did turn out pretty cute. It even tasted good.
Emma loved having the families of Ben's friends there, so that she had friends to play with too. She would dissappear into the toys for an hour and we would hunt her down so she would eat.
Ben and his new bike. (Thanks Grandma Pam.) He is so excited that he doesn't have to ride a girl bike with princesses on it anymore. He wanted to ride it in the snow when we got home last night, but we didn't let him.
Ben and his giant book. He loves it, but it is huge, and really heavy. Emma read to him all about puffins today. (Did you know they are almost like penguins.)
THanks to everyone that came and made this a special day for Ben, we appriciate you all and he a had a great time!
