We had Sam's 5th birthday party the weekend before Christmas. He chose an "army guy" theme and was really into it! I found he and Joel some camo shirts and then some face paint to really get into the theme! And a guy from church used to be in the army so he let Rob and Aaron borrow his stuff so they would really look the part too! He even gave my boys some of his old flashlights and bereas (is that how you spell that?). The weather was chilly but sunny and beautiful so our backyard was set-up like a mini battle field! They played outside with Daddy and Uncle Aaron and had a blast! I had to bribe them with cake to get them to come back inside! It was actually a pretty hands-off party for me, and I sort of liked that! I supplied the food and Daddy took over the rest! Here are a few pics from the morning:

The battle...
...and the battle rages on.
Happy 5th b-day Sam! What a big boy
you have become!

Those are memories that will last a lifetime. I love it!
What a fun party!! Preston had an army party when he was little, and I am sure there is an army party somewhere in my future as well, for Joshua that is!! We got your invitation to the party after we got home from Christmas in Burnet. Michelle
