Sam Graduates!

It seems like just yesterday when I was being life flighted into the city to give birth to my 8 week premature baby boy. He was 4lbs 4 ounces...but a fighter right from the get go. After only two weeks in the hospital (still 6 weeks premature) he was able to come home, and he gained a pound a week for the next 8 weeks. He still eats enough to fortify a small army, but fortunately, the pound a week tradition is no longer! :) Now that little four pounder is a grown boy....quickly turning into such a wonderful, funny, kind, genuine man. We are SO proud of Sam....SO. PROUD.


Sam and I just before he headed to the venue. "Mom, I don't have time for a picture!"..."C'mon Sam, just ONE!"...and look who won THAT battle! :) Moms rock!




Ben in the car on the way to Grad. Not too sure about the whole thing. All he knows is he had to dress up....




The auditorium where Grad was held. 400 graduates. 7 tickets each. YOU do the math!





Paige and Ben waiting for the Ceremony to start....



Sam coming out of the auditorium after the ceremony...he's so cute!




Sams 'posse'. The greatest group of guys you ever want to know. Sam made GREAT choices in friends and we've never had any trouble with this group (that we know of! hehe)



Sam and Mommy after the ceremony!



Sam just LOVES his siblings!




Sams Dad flew in for Grad...


Sam and one of his best buds, Skylar. Great guys....



Sam and his gorgeously funny girlfriend Dani....


Hugs to all,
Jaye
