SURPRISE!!!!!!!!!!!

Ben turned 35 on Friday. He never had a surprise party, so I decided this was the year to change it. He was surprised today when he arrived at our friend's Jon and Michelle's house. We were invited over for lunch... Ben didn't know it was with 30 other people. He was shocked!!!!
This was his cake... blue and white for Penn State complete with 35 candles.

The big joke is that Ben is very protective of his milk, especially when he is on a staff retreat. Peg and Shanu made sure that nobody touched their gift for him.

Eric's mom, Judy, wanted to make sure that Ben stays "regular" as he gets older.

After the party, Ben opened presents at home. I couldn't resist this picture of Karis and Ben with the balloons. We are all pooped from today's events, but it was worth it.

Happy belated Birthday Ben!!! I wanted to call and chit-chat with Sue this weekend, but time just got away from me. Hopefully we'll connect soon so we can catch up. :-)
