17

This past April Ben celebrate turned 17!  I really can not believe how fast my kids are growing up.   We sure do love him!
Since his birthday is on April Fool's Day my Mom had big plans for a prank and it involved TIN FOIL!   Very funny - although Sambo wanted no part of it because he knew Ben would be mad!  and he was because he didn't think he would get a parking spot (what!?!) ... a bit of a poor sport, I almost had to cancel his birthday - instead I covered wrapped all of his presents in tin foil!

By the time he got home from school he had chilled out and thought it was a little funny so my Mom and I took him to lunch to celebrate ... and later we let him open presents :)
