Benson's 3rd Birthday

My crazy boy turned 3 in February! On his birthday was the last day of tumbling. Daddy took the day off so he could go see him tumble and then have lunch afterwards. Benson chose Chili's for his birthday lunch. He and his dad ordered ribs and they had matching messy faces afterwards.

Benson was so excited this year for presents. He is very into sports and loved the sports clothes, soccer net and ball, and his bike. He is a little too small for his bike still but I hope he will be able to ride it by summer.

Benson loved his banner and balloons! Every time he walked into the kitchen he would say "Look it's my party!" We had cupcakes and ice cream after dinner and then headed for the kids first 3D movie. We met Lexi and Walker at the theater and watched "Escape from Planet Earth." It was a little scary at first for both Addy and Benson, but they warmed up really quickly to the 3D glasses.  Benson had a great birthday!
