a couple days before samantha's birthday she got an early present from auntie kim.... a brand new bike! she was so excited! ben took her to the park a couple times so she could practice riding it. (the sidewalks around our house aren't the greatest for learning how to ride a bike!) she did pretty good!
samantha turned 5 on friday, june 27th. ben had the day off, so we went to cici's pizza for lunch, chuck e cheese's to play, and then to loose park to take some pictures. that night at home she opened her presents from us and we had a mini cake that daddy got for her. on sunday, the 29th, we had her family party at our house. it was a beautiful night. ben grilled and we got to eat outside and enjoy the nice weather. samantha had fun opening her presents and was excited that she got a princess cake!
the cutie sitting next to her in the car is her pretend husband, or so i was told!
another fun thing we did while heather was here was riding the kansas city northern railroad. the trains run on a half-mile track. tickets are 50 cents apiece and you get to go around twice. it's actually quite fun. there's even a tunnel and a bridge! samantha loved it. ryan didn't!
we also went to briarcliffe fountain and j. c. nichols fountain on the plaza. it's my favorite fountain in kc and makes for some good pictures!
