Well, we missed it actually. Ben turned 17 the on the 2nd to last day we were in China. Fortunately he has a grandmother and aunt who love him and helped him celebrate a bit while we were gone. When we got home we invested in new tires for his car and took him out to dinner at one of his favorite Mexican restaurants. Tina made him wear the sombrero while the waiters sang Happy Birthday to him. He was a very good sport about that as you can see, and both his little brothers tried on the hat too...
