Sammy Turns 4

I cannot believe that Samuel is four years old!  My, oh, my where has the time gone!?

Our sweet little boy requested a Darth Vader party for his fourth birthday.  I thought, 'This should be easy enough, Star Wars is a classic!'  And for the most part it was fairly easy.  The decorations, plates, cups, etc. were found at Party City.  The cake, on the other hand, was impossible.  No one around here makes Star Wars cakes.  Specialty bakeries had them but they were super expensive.  We ended up just buying a regular sheet cake and Bobby found a Darth Vader candle at Party City as well as a Storm Trooper figure at Walmart.  As for food we kept it simple and I came up with creative names for the dishes.

The party was super fun.  We had more girls than boys but Sammy didn't mind at all.  He loved all of the food, his cake and was thrilled with all of his presents.  We are so thankful for all of our family and friends who joined us in celebrating.
