Jesus Loves You

Here is Sam singing Jesus Loves Me.. of course his version is "Jesus Loves You" which is also good! Enjoy... and be sure and go down to end of blog and turn off the music (on the right side). I cried the first time I heard him sing this. Thank you Jesus for this precious child!

Magic Kingdom

We had a wonderful and blessed time at Disney World Magic Kingdom. Sam really enjoyed it... especially meeting some of his favorite Disney characters. We first met Mickey Mouse. Sam hugged and kissed him and the whole crowd together said "AWWWW"! We had an autograph book so Sam also got everyones signature. We went into the Princess tent. Sam said "I don't want to see the Princess... I want to go home!" We were not sure why he was scared of these pretty girls. Belle (of Beauty and the Beast) noticed Sam and came over and calmed him down. You could tell that she was smitten by "Prince Sam". He fell head over heels for Belle!!! I was not intending on having my picture made with the pretty princesses, however, Sam would not let me leave him.. so here I am with my visor on and all my makeup sweated off! Oh well.. Sam says I am still a Princess (LOL)!
We also made reservations so we could eat lunch with Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Piglet, and Eeyore. We just had a ball!!!
As you can see.. we were very exhausted by the end of the day.

God Bless America!

Beach Vacation 2009

We went to Fort Walton Beach for the 4th of July. We stayed at a new condo that had 4 swimming pools with water falls, splash pads, and even a lazy river. We all had a wonderful time. Sam loves to jump in the pool and loves to go underwater. He is practicing holding his breath longer and longer. We also took Sam for his first go-cart ride on The Track. He rode four times.. twice with Nick and twice with me! He rode the toddler choo-choo train and airplane all by himself!! We ate lots of seafood (and popsicles) and made lots of sand sculptures!! We saw beautiful fireworks from the top deck in the parking garage. We could see them from Destin, Navarre Beach, Pensacola, and of course from Fort Walton's Landing.

Sam's Birthday Bash

Before watching the videos.. scroll to bottom of screen and pause music.

The first video is Sam with his GiGi and Paw Paw. His Paw Paw is speaking a unique version of Chinese to Sam. As you can see, Sam loves it when his PawPaw talks to him in his native language!

The other video is Sam turbo mowing our house. We just pray he is this enthusiastic about mowing when he gets older. Thanks Aunt Dot for the terrific gift!!!

The pictures are from our birthday dinner with Sam at a local Chinese restaurant.

Sam Turns 3!

Sam’s 3rd Birthday Party

Maestro Sam

The Montgomery Symphony Orchestra held a concert Friday evening downtown by the State Capitol. We carried a picnic and our lawn chairs and enjoyed an evening of beautiful music. Aunt Sherry and Uncle Pat joined us. Sam found a stick and quickly learned how to conduct music. The video below shows Nick and Sam wrestling with each other. I am so blessed to have so much free entertainment!
