That's right - Ben-Jammin' is eleven years old today! It doesn't seem possible...
Still coming down from his camp high, we had a low-key celebration yesterday. He got lots of small gifts (T-shirts, DVDs, a bag o' baseballs, etc) which he is enjoying thoroughly. We went to see Wall-E (different - good, but different) in the afternoon and spent the evening watching School of Rock (great movie, that one). I made all of his favorites: roasted chicken, mashed potatoes, corn, berries and whipped cream, and for dessert we had molten chocolate cake with homemade ice cream. The eating continues today with smoked ribs, BBQ beans, potato cakes, and chocolate chip pie. It is the weekend of Ben!
Happy Birthday, Ben! We love you!

You make 11 look a lot cooler than I did.
Happy Birthday, Ben! Yuo make 11 look a lot cooler than Kyle did.
Now, go Star Trekkin', or whatever it is you crazy kids do to celebrate.
Emma says she wants to give you a present for your birthday. She thinks a water gun would be fun for you. So please accept our idea of a water gun and squirt a little virtual water on your mom for me. Happy birthday!

Wow - 11 years old! It really doesn't seem possible. Happy Birthday Ben! And we saw Wall-E this weekend too. I thought the previews promised a much better flick than was actually delivered. But he was cute, for a trash compactor!
