Ben turns 6

Ben is now 6 years old. My, how time flies.

He had a birthday celebration yesterday afternoon, with his lolos, lolas, aunts, uncles, cousins, and of course, me. He also had his friend from the neighborhood, Jomer, come.

I wanted to give him something of a Spongebob Squarepants type of party, but I've been so busy I wasn't able to do anything other than some Spongebob Squarepants characters cut outs. I also wasn't able to take many pictures, as I was moving around so much. It was a bit crowded in the house yesterday, and since we still don't have a sofa set, people had to sit on stools, but it was a lot of fun, and getting together with everyone is always nice.

Another get together is likely to happen this Wednesday, when Auntie Delan celebrates her 81st birthday. She's looking good too.

Here are a couple of pictures and a video when Ben blew out his candle. Actually, he blew out a matchstick, because they waited so long before they moved around the cake to sing him his happy birthday song that the wick fell off the candle. He didn't seem very happy about that.

Here's the short video of the blowing of the candle:
