My Birthday (by Ben)

First of all, I want to say that I am replacing my mom in this post. I guess she was getting busy. I turned 11 on my birthday, which was 2 July. In Summer School, I had a "party" in my class. Did I have a great time there? Really, I did, as much as always. It was a long story short. Here are some pictures in the evening party with my family. In these pictures, I have my puzzle cubes, even the new ones that I got as my birthday presents. Those are my QJ Megaminx, the V cube 3 (you know what a V cube is, don't you?) and the Eastsheen 4x4 (to replace my old and broken 4x4). There were several other things that I got for my birthday that I forgot. My cake had only one candle, though Blake, my little brother, insisted that I should have ELEVEN candles on it. That would be a big number.

Then we came to the Singing Flag, just across the busy street (Concord Boulevard) from my house. I brought three of my eight puzzle cubes (the 3x3, the 4x4, and the Gear Cube). We enjoyed the "show" and scrambled and solved my cubes.

This is my thinking face when I am solving the 4x4 cube that I got. This shows that I am focusing on it. I am not sure why I look tired in this picture, but that is not true.

This was a time where I made sure to keep it special. Overall, it was a great birthday!
