Sammy's first birthday party

The birthday festivities have commenced for the Van Dyke children in 2011. It's been an incredibly busy couple of weeks with both of their birthdays and birthday parties, but we made it! Beginning next year we will only have one, shared birthday party for the both of them...That should make life a little easier on all of us. :)

Thank you to all of you who came over to share Sammy's special day with us. We really do appreciate it and loved seeing all of you! Sammy and Adri had a great time and we hope you did too!

I'm not sure who does and doesn't want their photos posted on the blog, so I decided to play it safe and just post pictures of the kids...I do have more photos if you'd like to see them!

Sammy loved Uncle Martin and Aunt Shannon's present...Especially the box it came in! I think he was on it the entire day and most of the night playing...
