Happy Birthday, Sam!!! I feel like he’s been 11 for a long time because he’s so mature and young in his class. It’s real now, and it was a special year – his birthday was on Friday the 13th, just like his original birthday!
He started his Friday with pancakes. This was also the first day of D&D club at school. He had a super fun time and is excited to play again before classes every Friday. He and his elementary gang are starting a new campaign. In class they sang to him in Spanish in his World Languages class.
After school we opened presents. He got a lot of cool tech this year! Not only did he get his first cell phone, but a new Kindle, a new headset, and a new keyboard. We also we set up a large monitor and organized his desk space. He loves gaming there now. We had (I forget…Chick fil A?) for dinner and then got Coldstone ice cream for dessert.
Saturday night Sam celebrated with friends at Thane’s Tavern – a gaming restaurant. I booked the Wynchwood Forest private room and Ben had his friend, a professional DM, lead a custom campaign. The kids had an absolute blast! (I made a chocolate D20 cake, but we ended up not serving it because it was pretty noisy and the service was a little hectic, so we enjoyed it at home over the next week. )
