Happy Birthday Benton

We had a week full of parties for Benton. Who knew it could be so fun to turn 4? Party #1 was a surprise to Benton. We told him we were going to Grandpa's and instead showed up at Cowabunga Water Park with his cousins. He was thrilled! We hadn't been there before so we weren't sure what he would be able or would brave enough to do, but thankfully he has some really cool older cousins. They took him to the top of the highest slide while Christian and I waited at the bottom. We kept thinking there is no way he is going to go down that, a few seconds later he was flying through the water and ready to do it again.

His actual birthday was on Sunday and the primary did a spotlight on him. He was so cute standing up there. They asked him "why is today a special day?" and Benton said "because today is Sunday." He loved telling everyone he was now 4!
 I love this picture...just look at his face! I forget how exciting birthday's are when you are little.
Benton kept telling everyone when he got his full Iron Man suit he would get his powers. He was pretty excited to finally get that suit...and he has worn it almost daily since.
Benton loves the Utes, even though most of his cousins are Cougar fans. I think his favorite part of the week was spending time with his cousins, thanks to everyone for making it a fantastic week!
