Sam's B-day, stickers & cookie night

Sam is one! We had a great time at his party. He was such a good sport about the cupcake. The frosting was blue & yellow...so he made it into green. Hugh & Liz also made some houses out of cardboard boxes. Clearly the hit of the party. We need to dig out a wardrobe box and do the same. No matter what toys you buy, it's the free stuff that is the most fascinating.

We had Valentines Day cookie night in Lieu of Christmas cookie night this year. There are always too many cookies...next year we making rules, like one dozen cookies per person. It should be less about the cookie decorations and more about the cocktails!
