Kites, Funny Boots and Yard Sale

Kites, Funny Boots and Yard Sale 05/25/2008

What a busy week for Benjamin Thomas! The first exciting event of the week was his very first experience with kite flying. On a windy afternoon last week we headed out to the cul-de-sac and attempted to fly the kite we had bought a few weeks ago at CVS. Although there are many trees around and not much room to run, we managed to get the kite in the air and Ben even had a chance to fly it himself.

Then on Thursday, Benjamin participated on the "Funny Feet Walk-a-thon" at school. The children were supposed to decorate their shoes with stickers, stuffed animals, ribbon, etc. and bring them to school to wear when they participate in the event. As you can see, much care and effort went into the creation of Benjamin's "Funny Feet". However, the day of the walk-a-thon, Benjamin forgot to put them on at school and did the whole race in his sneakers! Oh well! He had fun anyways and completed a whopping 35 laps!

YARD SALE!!! When I found out that Benjamin's Pop-Pop was going to be having a yard sale, we took this opportunity to gather up and sort through Benjamin's mountain of toys. Although skeptical at first, Benjamin was such a BIG BOY when determining if he wanted to keep or sell his toys. As you can see, he agreed to put a lot up for sale!

The day of the Yard Sale (yesterday) was a gorgeous day and we had a lot of customers. Benjamin was very well behaved and had a great time running around Pop-pop and grand-mom's yard. Even though we didn't sell all of the things we brought, we had a great time and decided to take the remainder of the toys to Good Will. Be sure to check out more pictures on "Benjamin's Photos"

What a Great Week!!
