Sammie had a great 11th birthday last Monday- May 7th. First we had arranged for Thomas and I to take her and her friend Madolyn to lunch during the school day. Madolyn knew about it, but it was such a surprise for Sammie. To say they had fun is a bit of an understatement.
They stuffed themselves with pizza and tacos from the local Taco Bell/Pizza Hut that Sammie adores. Her 2 favorite places in one! Then that night we had a lasagna dinner with Meghan, Brian, Laura and our kids plus Madolyn.
Sammie wanted root beer floats instead of cake so we put candles in her watermelon.
We got her a few little things, but she wanted an iPod touch so we put most of her gift money toward that. She loves it!
If you’ve ever seen cake boss- you know the tradition of getting a cool whip pie in the face on your birthday. I decided to make it happen for Sammie this year. Unfortunately for me I think revenge is coming my way. She’s already planning mine and my next birthday isn’t until March!
By far the highlight of the evening started with Tyler doing this:
We tricked her by saying we had one more gift on the deck and she had to close her eyes. She was sitting on the bench of the deck and then whammo! Tyler smashed the pie in her face. He was positively giddy at the idea of getting to do it. So much so that he chased Sammie (who was trying to eat her pie) and smashed his own face in it! It has to be the funniest thing I’ve ever seen.
We are equal opportunity smashers and Madolyn wanted in on the action:
These were all action shots taken with Thomas’ IPhone so they are not that great of quality, but still so funny.
Here’s one of all three silly kids. Spencer thought they were all nuts.
Lets just say it was a birthday to remember.
