Looking Back at 2013......Sam's Birthday

 On October 29, 2013, Samuel turned 8-years old/

 For his birthday we had a little family party at the Frozen Custard Shop

 Pizza was the fool of choice and received a thumbs up from the birthday boy.

He even co-ordinated his shirt for the occasion!

 The usual suspects were in attendance.

Jessica, Joshua and Courtney.

 Samuel huffed.......

 and puffed........

 and did finally blow out the candles!!

Samuel's birthday falls around Halloween, so we usually throw in some pumpkin carving fun!!

 

Removing the pumpkin guts.

Always fun for a kid who hates to get his hands dirty!

Sam was a good sport! 

 Drawing on his design.

The finished product!!

Can't believe Samuel has reached the ripe old age of eight!!

Time goes far to quickly......

CELEBRATION time.....come on and on and on and on

Saturday morning was nice and cool.

Perfect for a game of soccer......

Samuel did not agree.

Either did Jessica......she stayed in bed.

Samuel was very excited about going to soccer,

BUT,

when we arrived, his tune changed.

Samuel waiting in line with Dad to do some warm-up exercises.

and waiting.......

Samuel gave up waiting and declared it "break time!"

Samuel decided to give it a try.  He will kick for fries.

After soccer we headed of home to get ready for Sam's birthday party.

This was Sam's 1st "organized" friend party.

Looking back, our older kids had some bobby dazzler parties by this stage in their lives.

We thought it was time for Sam.

Plus, it gave me a chance to use the term "bobby dazzler."

The party was at a place called, "Pump It Up."

Who is that lone parent...and how did he manage to be alone?

 

Many a child (and adult) tried to climb this wall.  Very hard with socks on!!

 

 

 

 

It is good to be king!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR SAMUEL

Silence reigned supreme for a few minutes!!

 

Samuel opened 1 present.  Sam is not into present opening?? 

I think a good time was had by all.

Thank you to all that came.

Maybe same time, same place, next year!
