NINE

Happy Birthday, Benjamin! Benjamin was SO excited to open presents that he woke up at 5am on his birthday. We waited until 6:45 to wake up siblings and open presents. He got two Olaf's from Levi, legos from Spencer, Ogosport from Andrew, a basketball from Sarah, material for a new quilt and Beats from mom and dad. He also got money from Nonnie and Grandma and Grandpa. He enjoyed a yummy breakfast of pancakes, eggs and sausages and then we sent him off to school for the day. At school, he got to share M&M cookies with his classmates.








As a family, we went and saw Minions and afterwards ate gyros from the Gyro Shack and had Blizzards at Dairy Queen. Benjamin really wanted an ice cream cake from Dairy Queen but when we got there the freezer wasn't working and it was empty. Benjamin was feeling very flexible and decided that Blizzards were a great second choice. His friend Jackson went with us for the fun evening! (Sarah was babysitting.)
