Bennett had a great time celebrating his 4th birthday. He was very excited! After a big breakfast, we headed off for a day at the Oregon Zoo.
Our fertility specialist's office was hosting a big luncheon at the zoo that day. So we took our picture with the man who helped bring Bennett (& Sarah) into the world.
The kids loved the bird show.
Sarah was fascinated by all the animals and kept asking for "more." She especially loved the Lorikeets.

Bennett loved opening presents. He had a great time playing with his new remote control car from his grandparents.
He requested a chocolate peanut butter birthday cake.
Jackson made this pillow for Bennett at Cub Scout Camp.
The following Saturday we had a Friess family birthday party celebrating three August birthdays - Myah (5), Bennett (4) and Caden (3). The kids broke a pinata and opened presents. They all love playing together!
Bennett, the clone trooper, with his new glowing light saber. What a happy kid!

Birthday girl, Myah.
I got a belated birthday present as well. Danielle drew these beautiful pictures of Bennett and Sarah to go with one of Jackson that she did when he was their age. So precious! What amazing talent!
Wendy made this fabulous birthday cake - half pirates, half rainbows. Perfect!

LOVE the birthday party. Bennett looked smashing as a storm trooper! Danielle's drawings are INCREDIBLE and Wendy's looks DELICIOUS! Again, wish we could be there. At least we get to come up for the blessing.
