Sam's Birthday

Sam's turns 17!!!
We celebrated Sam's birthday by going tubing at Gorgoza Park.
She wanted family only, but it wasn't in the cards.
Nate, our new little friend from India nuzzled up to us starting with our first wait in line.
He didn't say a word.  He just stayed with us.  We thought, ok.
We rode down tethered together and wondered if we should invite him.
When we went to the start of the line again, there was Nate, like my fifth kid that wasn't there
(sorry Kinsey, you were replaced).
We invited him to hang with us on the next ride and he was part of the family from then on!
His family waited for him at the bottom of the hill and each time sent him up with us (he was the only one of them with a ticket).
He turned out to be a great addition!

Sam had a good time, but I think what she really liked was the shopping and dinner afterward.  

This is a fun video we took of our tubing ride at the park:






Happy Birthday SAM!!!!
