Happy Birthday Dear Sami...

Samantha was a little spoiled this year. She got to celebrate her birthday 3 times!
The Saturday before, she got to get together with a few of her friends and go to Leo's Place for pizza and fun. Leo's has a HUGE indoor play area for the kids to climb and play in. The girls had so much fun running and screaming and the boys had fun chasing and teasing.







Samantha wanted to have her hair all curly for her birthday, but all of our curlers are packed neatly in a box in a storage unit! But I had a brilliant idea: Rags! I remembered reading that in the "old days," ladies put their hair up in rags to achieve curls. They turned out pretty good, don't you think?







On Sunday, the entire family came over for cake and ice cream. Samantha had plenty of help opening her presents. It was nice having everybody together in one place. Well, everybody who lives close by, that is.
Even Grandma Tolman made an appearance.
Then, Samantha went home with Grandma Pam for her birthday sleepover and a day of shopping and other "girl" stuff on Monday.

All in all, Samantha had a great birthday!
