Sami's birthday party was so much fun last night, I couldn't wait to blog about it! It started out with homemade pizza, root beer, and salad. The perfect meal in our opinion. And then the cake came out. Sami has never had cake before. She wasn't sure about it at first, but then realized it was really, really good. She had two cakes, one that I made and one from her Grandma. (Thanks Trish!).
And thanks Uncle Wayne, for playing "peek-a-boo" with her when she was eating her cake. I had mentioned earlier that Sami loves this game, but she covers her ears instead of her eyes when she plays. So Wayne decided that it was time to get messy, and helped out by playing with her. It really was funny.
After a quick bath, it was time for presents. She got so many nice gifts: clothes, books, and toys. Thank you so much to all of you who sent and brought presents. Here are just a few of them:
Grandma Olsen brought Sami a Vtech Nursery Farm, a huge hit for Sami and Julia.
And our dear friends MaryAnne, Dave, and Becca sent Sami a board book and a beautiful dress. The beautiful bow on the wrapping paper was almost a present in itself for Sami. Thanks you guys, she is going to look gorgeous in her new dress while she looks at her book in church on Sunday. And now a word about me...I know, I look huge! Jonathan's favorite saying is "tick, tock, when's she going to pop?"
We had so much fun with all our friends and family! I know Sami had a great birthday. And now I just get to sit back and watch her play with her new toys. :)
