It's hard to believe, but Little Sam Q turned 2 this past weekend. We invited a few friends and had a wonderful party - our first gathering at our new house! Unfortunately rain kept us inside, but spirits were certainly not dampened. Sam had so much fun and really seemed to understand that it was a special day. Here's a window into Sam's big day...
Sam and his helpers open gifts.
Blowing out the candles with help from Mom & Macy.
Yummy!
In honor of Sam's first and truest love I decorated the cake with an image of a vacuum cleaner. But Sam thought it was an elephant and Macy guessed an alligator. "A" for effort??
Kevin had the kids upstairs playing games. This was the lineup for "run and jump on the bed"...an old standard birthday party game, right? From front to back: Gordie, Macy, Sam & Benjamin (hidden).
Sam & his guests, L to R: Baby Nate (Benjamin's little brother), Benjamin, Sam, Gordie, Macy & Harper (Macy's little sister). Grownup guests included the parents of the above mentioned children, plus my mom & Dick (Mormor & Cappy), and my friend Laura...We highly recommend this crew for parties!
After everyone was gone Sam had some fun with his new loot. And then took a 3 hour nap! Ahhh...it's good being two!
