Benjamin's Bobcats Birthday Party with Rufus

Back in March at the Cotwold School Auction Party we bid on and won a Birthday Party with the Charlotte Bobcats mascot Rufus...we surprised Benjamin for his 8th Birthday! 

Benjamin had a great time with all his friends, especially his new one Rufus!

Happy 8th Birthday to Benjamin Clarence Goguen!!!

It was a great time for all, Rufus entertained with a video, dancing, games, autographs and even balloons! 

Super Heros

So back in December, Sara took the boys to the Mint Museum for an event and signed up for a membership. I was hesitant at first but now that we have taken two trips for childrens events, this is one of our favorite things to do!

SeaWitch 2011

We traveled to Rehoboth Beach for the 3rd Year to celebrate the Seawitch Festival with the Cool Family at their beach house.

We were able to walk around on Friday, including a trip to the DogFish Brewery so Dad could try the Faithful Ale (Pearl Jam).

Family theme was 101 Dalmations

(Dog Catcher, Dalmation, King Dalmation and Cruella)

Cousins all dressed up with Aunt Karen.

Kids out at the Beach, the rain canceled the parade but we still had a great time which included some Planking and Sara's Stormy Seawitch Potion.
