"TWO!"

Sam got up this morning and we asked him, "how old are you today?" and he proudly shouted "TWO!" This is probably due to the fact for the past few days we have been telling him that he is going to be two today. But he was just so darn cute saying it this morning. Andy got him saying it on the video camera last night, but he was not as excited about it yesterday as he was this morning. I don't think that he really realizes that today is a special today for him, but this morning he was in an especially good mood, running all over the house with his lawn mover that he got for his birthday last year. I think that he knew something was special about today, but doesn't really get why. But he is soooo ready to have some cake!!! He wanted some this morning for breakfast! Guess he already has one of the best things about birthday down pat! We are celebrating with my family today, tomorrow he is celebrating at school and Friday we will celebrate as a family with Jacob and then this weekend we will celebrate with Andy's family. Just some small celebrations so he doesn't get too overwhelmed. I will post pictures as I can.

HAPPY 2nd BIRTHDAY SAM!!!

To My Mom...

Mom -
I know that saying "thank you" is not enough for being my Mom. For everything that you have done for me, from caring for me before I even entered this world to still being there for me today. There are thousands, make that millions of things, that you have done for me that I can't thank you enough for. For taking care of me, for being there, and just for simply being my Mom. I hope that you know how much I have appreciated everything you have done for me and for all the times you have been there for me. Thank you for being my Mom and more than ever, "I Love You."
Love,
Pam

Happy Mother's Day

Today Sam and I celebrated Mother's Day at my Grandma & Grandpa's house. We have a very nice BBQ and everyone saw that it only took Sam about 20 minutes before he was the bouncing little toddler that he is at home. He loved being able to play outside the whole time we were there. He played with everyone I think, anyone that would stay outside with him that was, including Aspen (aunt Becky's dog). We also celebrated Sam, Nick and Uncle Jeff's birthday! Happy Birthday!!! Sam says thank you for all the fun gifts too! Grandma, he loved playing with the squirt bottle from him new toy in the bath tonight! Thank you Grandma & Grandpa for a fun time. Happy Mother's Day!!! More pictures from the day here.

Lynda - Happy Mother's Day to you too. I hope you are having a great time in Gatlinburg!

5 Years Already?

Today is Andy and I's wedding anniversary (is that a word "I's"?). I can't believe that it has been five years already. Seem like it was just a year or two ago that we were in Gatlinburg in the mountains saying our vows. I am so very lucky to have Andy as my husband and the family that he has given me. We didn't do anything special, but hopefully we will get a chance to have dinner or something soon. Here is to another faboulous five years!
