Happy 11th, Sam!

Eleven years sounds like a very long time. It’s more than a decade. Sam celebrated 11 years with us on Wednesday by having many of his hockey buddies over for fried chicken, pizza, cake, video games, shooting out in the garage, and a sleepover. We sure had fun! Here are a couple pictures, but more is in the album.

Here we are, decorating Sam's cake :) The boys each wrote something.

Some of the boys - four of them - saw this big tent in its bag in the garage and begged to camp out in it! What was I to do? I really couldn't deny eager boys an adventure, could I? We set it up in the dark, in the rain, mopped up the floor, and had cake then went out to sleep through a pretty heavy downpour all night. The tent held up, and so did we - had a great time. Even had a urinal in the tent because the rain was so heavy. Check out the album for more photos...
