Bentley's 3rd Birthday!

Bentley celebrated his 3rd Birthday at the Hillman Family Reunion.  We had cupcakes at the reunion and waited to come home to open the presents. 

When we got home, I made a Lightning McQueen cake and celebrated in true 3 year old style.  We went to the patio and opened presents while we ate cake and ice cream.

Ka-chow!

Happy Birthday, dear Bentley! Happy Birthday to you!

When you say dig in, he takes that literally!

He got a tool bench and some tools to go with it!

Grandma and grandpa got him a Pez dispenser and they also paid for his swimming lessons.

What a happy 3 year old!  So glad that he came into our lives, because it might get dull without him!  Love you Bentley!

 

 

 



Nothing like a little Hometown Celebration!

They started something new this year, called the Children's Parade.  The children decorate their bikes and ride from the "Malad Drive-In" to the City Park.  Bentley was almost 3, but he wanted to ride his bike so badly!  We finally decorated and gave in.  I didn't know if he was big enough to ride that far, but when we got to the park, I said, "Bentley, you did it!  Was that fun?"  He said, "Yeah mom, I wanna do it again!!"  He must have more energy that me!

Cheese!

That's right...I'm just riding away!

Waiting for them to say go at the Children's Races (in the park).  He got second place!  He is a "fast boy!"

Uncle Layne went with him to collect his 50 cent piece and to get his name in the paper!  Way to go buddy!

The Boy Loves to Fish

 Something about boys and fishing that I'll never really understand.  Aunt Alicia teaching Bentley how to fish!

 Fishing with Daddy....(while daddy reads a book)

Fishing for worms!
