Relay for Life

Ben participated in his 2nd Relay for Life this past weekend. Last year he was only 2 weeks old. This year he could enjoy the day, and had a lot of fun. He was pushed in his stroller all afternoon/night and had a ball checking everyone out and being treated like a King (well, he is a King after all). He actually walked a lap by himself too. We were lapped a few times by other walkers, but it was fun to see him walk so much. It was his first time sleeping in a tent, and he did well. He spent it with Grandma and Grandpa in their tent. He went to sleep awfully late, and got up early, but he pretty much slept through the night. I was able to sleep for 4 hours, then had an hour nap later. I got to kick out two drunk people too - woo hoo - wasn't that fun!? The Relay raised over $66,000.
It was a patriotic theme this year.

Walking a lap...

He had spaghetti for dinner after Relay.

Love the spaghetti face! Ben is such a cutie! It was great to meet you all at the BBQ on Sunday. Look forward to seeing you again soon.
