Samantha's 5th Birthday

Last weekend was pretty busy. In addition to her dance recital, Sam also turned 5 & had her birthday party. Phew! It was definitely a fun day, though. We woke up in the morning & had french toast (Sammie's request) and then opened a few presents from us. I think this play-doh thing has been the biggest hit so far -- and it should be...Sam has wanted this since she picked it out for a friend when she was 3.

Later in the afternoon we headed to Build a Bear workshop for her party. What a great time! I highly recommend their parties -- they definitely know what they're doing (and every kid goes home with a toy).
