HAPPY BIRTHDAY SAM!

Can you believe this guy is 6!!!



The day started with our traditional breakfast in bed! Sam had requested Chocolate Chip Pancakes.....Yummo!

This year Sam has asked for a Lego Birthday. I do a theme every year and I love that he choose Lego. He loves to build, and it's a great toy. You can be so creative in your building, or you can follow directions and create the things on the box. Either way, it's a great learning tool.

Of course, you do have the stepping on Lego's issues...I have stepped on those pesky little pieces quite a few times and have had a few yelps! The best was when Jake got one right in the middle of his foot, I have never heard the man holler so loudly...it was pretty funny.

Anyhow, back to the birthday. We will be doing a party in a couple of weeks. With his birthday the day before American Thanksgiving it made it a bit tough to do a party right away. So we will celebrate with a Lego Party at the end of the month.

Jake had Sam's birthday off, so we went to enjoy the day at the Legoland Discovery Center and Sealife Aquarium in Grapevine. My kids affectionately call it "Little Legoland" since they have been used to the big amusement park in California. But even though this one only has a couple of small rides, the kids have a great time and they love it there. 

I also had to include this pic of Sam. I just love it. A couple of weeks ago we went on another "Discover the area" day and checked out Cowboy's Stadium, 6 Flags, and the Baseball Stadium. Here is a pic of Sam checking out some Cowboy's merchandise.

**Don't worry football friends back in California, we are still die hard Steeler Fans!**
  

I am so thankful for my sweet, tenderhearted little man. He is a joy and I am so blessed to be his Momma. Happy Birthday Sweet Boy!
