We are totally buzzing from a terrific day spent with friends out on the deck for the annual birthday party.  It ended up being the BEST weather even though they said it would be otherwise.  Not one single drop.  Even the medium gray clouds were gone before the party started.

Unfortunately I didn’t get everyone in the photo but you get the idea.  Here’s a cool thing:  all the girls are current buddies who come to help out in Room 10.  All the boys are buddie-alumni, coming back to visit from High School

    This is an incredible post, the unexpected weather, the great photos of friends and buddies, and DAD, and the 4-leaf find, at which you are SO good!
    You ARE blessed, and look at all the people you made happy and to whom you showed a great time.
    Happy birthday, Sam!

    Look!
    It’s a meeting of the Totally Adorable Human Beings Club…and who is the Incredible Arranger of All Good Birthday Things? the Den Mother that everyone loves?…that would be YOU.
    Happiest Birthday to Sam, but as we say around here:
    “Hey, the Mom did all of the hard work on this day, ___ years ago…”
    so Big Kiss to you and the entire family.
    Rock Hands from Colorado….

    What great news that sunny skies prevailed for Sam’s party! We can tell it was a day to remember…those happy faces say it all! I so agree with Lisa, if Mrs.Ward is behind something, you just KNOW it’s gonna be a BLAST! Love the pic of your first 4-leaf clover of the year. Wishing you a lawn full of luck this summer. xox
