The big 3-1!!

Ben had to work on his birthday. And I had to run kids around on his birthday. Which makes for a very low key birthday celebration! Sorry, hun! :)

Right after the kids got home from school, we headed over to the firestation to spend at least of few minutes with him!

We made him the awesome candy card.

This girl LOVES her dad!

We got him some cards. The boys wrote their own names. And Paisley wrote a “P”. They were very proud!

We played on the fire truck.

We dressed up as firemen.

And we drove home just in time to hit rush hour traffic!

When Ben got home the next day, we had plans to go out for dinner with his parents and I made him a carrot cake. Parleigh put a little damper on our plans; I ended up taking her to the Children’s Hospital ER….was there for 5 hours, and missed out on his birthday dinner AND eating cake! Annnd, Ben had to finish frosting his cake…I had big plans, too! :)

Parker was in charge of the camera. He forgot the memo telling him to make sure his father didn’t act like  goober for all the pictures!

Well, Ben. I sure do love you! How lucky are we to have you in our lives?

  1. How fun, what a great idea. But isn't there an extra little girl in the pictures? Is there something you need to tell us about?
