Sam is two years old today.  We celebrated in two-year-old fashion yesterday.  More pictures on my flickr page if you want to see more. 

First, Frankenberry cereal (blech, that his dad bought; the kids loved it).

Then early in the morning we had to get to Olde Town to participate in the Arvada Harvest Festival parade.  All Kindergarten kids and their family are invited to walk.  So we thought, why not make it special for Sam and take the bus?

Bus!  Bus!  City bus!  Fun!  Bus!

A bit more walking, a lot of waiting, and we were part of a parade!

Here’s Jack talking with his teacher.

We stopped a block from the end of parade route to finish at the playground.

Then back to the car for shopping and lunch.  We bought a trike for Sam at Toys R Us and had pizza buffet. 

Cheetza!  Cheetza!  Cheetza!

Before nap he had a minute to try out the trike.

After nap Amanda joined us for cake and presents.  It’s just a Rice Krispies treat cake – since Sam only eats the frosting off cake anyway.  I figured the treats would be easier to form into a train.  It was a delight to the boys.
