Ben's 8th Birthday Weekend

Been awhile since I posted but this past Friday Ben turned eight year's old. Weena and I took Friday off as Ben had the day off from school (Teacher Professional Day) so we took full advantage of a nice, crisp Fall day.

We went to Cox Farms, had lunch, played putt putt golf and had a nice dinner out after stopping by Toys R Us so Ben could pick out his present. I promised to take him to a Caps game real soon as part of his birthday present. On Saturday Ben played soccer for his U8 team, the Dragons. Very nice weekend!

PS- Not sure why these photos aren't lining up properly.

In addition to scoring the only goal for his team in a 1-1 draw, Ben played goalie the last quarter. 4 shots, 4 saves and confidence in each save. He said he wanted the challenge to play between the pipes and his coach gave it to him.
