Cape Cod

Spinners VIP

Daddy and I went to a special event at LeLacheur Park with my friend Emily and her dad. We got to meet a bunch of the Spinners players and they all signed my new hat!


Me and Emily...


There was a Star Wars sign. How awesome is that?

Hmmm....are any of these guys famous? I really couldn't tell ya. Maybe someday.

It's my party...

The crazy hot weather is gone, but the torrential downpours made my outdoor party at Great Brook Farm a little, um, interesting. Nevertheless, I was psyched to see my school friends and my friends from babyhood all in one place. We moved our little shindig indoors to the ice cream shop, ran around and watched the cows.

It was all good.

(Mental note to the party planning committee: No more outdoor birthday parties. Even in July.)

Mr. Five-Year-Old!

I am FIVE!


Mommy made me a LEGO cake.


I was very excited with all the cool stuff that I got from my friends and family.









The weather was ridiculously hot for my birthday this year so I chose to spend the day inside, with the AC on, playing with my new legos!


After all the LEGO-ing, I headed out for a special birthday dinner with Max (my best friend in the galaxy) and then back home for birthday cake. Best.Day.Ever.

(Again, my blog editor apologizes for the lack of a touching picture montage and blames the lifeless computer that holds the majority of the pictures. It will be up eventually!)

Run, Ben, Run!

My friend Alex and I ran our first (2 mile!) road race with our parents and our little brothers (in strollers).

Here we are before the race. We were very excited.


Running, running, running...




Mommy and me at the finish line...



After the race we relaxed and settled in for the very long parade!
