Despite the heavy first snow fall of the season we had a very bright colorful party!
Sammy wore a clown tie and nose, and is showing off the Spongebob wristband covered lollipop from the favor bag. He and Freddie also wore matching "party shirts" as they call them.
As the kids arrived Jacob led them in a Rock Band contest to the Beatles' Birthday, then once everyone was here Oscar the Clown arrived.
(Please excuse the support pole in the way. And the blurry pictures. It's hard to take good pictures of active children in a basement!)
Everyone was falling over with laughter. Really.
Sammy got to be the helper. He also chose a few of his friends to help out, too.
Oscar had the kids cracking up.
It was almost as fun to watch the kids watching Oscar. Sammy's friend, Drew, in particular was adorable. He could barely sit up right. And Calvin kept falling off the back of the couch (I think on purpose, though!). That's Drew in the bottom right of the photo. And I think Cal was actually behind the couch in this picture!
Sammy and the hilarious Oscar at cake time.
The cake!
The cookies!
Quiet kiddos eating cake and donuts and cookies! (yep, that's right. Jacob even gave some of the kids seconds of cake.)

After cake, we went downstairs and Sammy opened presents.
After presents the kids had about 20ish minutes to play. I furiously built a Hot Wheels set with a rotation of five or so boys breathing down my neck. Surprisingly no pieces were missing and it was put together for them to play with for a little bit, too. Whew!
Happy Birthday, Sammy! We love you so much!
xo, Mom and Dad

Y'all are the best parents! The party looks amazing. I bet the boys were thrilled! (And by the way the basement looks fantastic!)
