First party of the New Year is Sam's Birthday for us!!!

Sam's birthday is January 14 and he hit the big 1. However, we hardly celebrated at all on his actual birthday. Greg has decided to go work for Air Excursions up in Alaska until the middle of March, and they asked him to be up on the 12th. I will stay and continue to work full-time doing home care, and hopefully Greg will have some flying to do down here in March. So we had 3 birthday parties for Sam before Greg left. Saturday with Grandma and Papi (Vause), Sunday with the Gerritsen clan, and Monday at our home. Sam's favorite part I think, was eating all the cake and ice cream (or at least the M&Ms off the cake).

The birthday boy himself.
My first ever dinosaur cake! I thought he was so cute I didn't want to serve him. Like I said, Sam's favorite part was eating the eyes and toenails.

We miss this guy! Preston and Sam especially miss their fun daddy.
This was the snake cake Grandma Sharon made for Sam. It was delicious! I have to say that I love birthday cake so I had an excellent weekend.
