Benjamin is 6!!!

A week before Benjamin's birthday, Benjamin requested that he have "chocolate donuts with lots of sprinkles" as his birthday cake. Well...I couldn't refuse such a request. It certainly made my life easier in planning his birthday celebration(s). Nana & Papa furnished the "exactly perfect" ones when we had lunch with cousins & great Grandma Burnette. FUN. We also got him a gigantic chocolate donut from our favorite donut shop. Finger licking good...he was pleased!

4 sweet cousins...a happy bunch




Special donuts from Nana & Papa - thank you!



Surprise....it's a Huge donut (oh, and I loved the price...$5.99 - compare that with a store bought cake)



What you can't see is that Trevin desperately wanted to help with the candles.



a remote control truck & lots of legos...doesn't get much better for a 6 year old boy.





What a wonderful big boy we have! He is already looking forward to turning 7.

I love the big donut! Dylan always wants a donut cake on his birthday, so we stack a bunch of donuts up & put candles at the top:) Fun, fun!
