Benson's 3rd birthday

Benson's birthday fell in the middle of a very busy week- right in between relief society activities, ward Halloween parties, school Halloween parties, etc.  So rather than scheduling another party on top of everything already going on, we decided to do a party at volleyball. 

It turned out really well. We just had cupcakes and a really ghetto piñata. It was great. Benson loved it.

Opening presents at home

Here are a few of his favorites-

New to-mater car from Grandma Brown

Truck from Grandma Carol 

Spider-man jammies from Granny Ginny 

Our main present to Benson was this new bike. Thanks to his old strider (balance) bike, he learned to ride this one the first time we went out! I was one proud parent!!! Even though he can ride it, he still is intimidated by the new pedal bike though, and asks for his "little" bike back.
