Ben's First Car

Thanks to our neighbors, Gail and Phil, Ben got his very first car this week! It needed a little cleaning and Ben was more than willing to help wash his car.


He made sure to get his sponges wet and
soapy (yes, he's using two).

Working hard to clean the exterior of his vehicle...make it shine Ben!

Back for more soap and water.

Meticulously cleaning the interior of his vehicle.

And finally,

He takes it for a test drive!

Go, Car, Go!

Last Saturday we went to Como zoo with our neighbors, Nick and Jen, and their daughter Lily. They both liked the animals, of course, but this time we also visited the Como Amusement Park. After some debate on whether or not Ben and Lily could handle the ride, we decided to take a chance.


They listened carefully to the rules.

"Hey Ben, can you believe they're letting us drive by ourselves!?"


After the first ride was over, they both wanted "MORE"

This sure is fun!!

"Hey Lily, let's see how this thing corners!"

After the cars, they went on a train ride with their Dads.

What a fun day, and it's hard to believe Ben's big enough to start going on rides!
