Since Samantha is all into Tinkerbell, this year she got a Tinkerbell cake. And of course I followed up with the traditional second birthday cake... an ice cream cake. The grandparents all came but unfortunately the chicken pox kept Sam's cousins away. It was a bit cold outside so we spent most of the day inside. However Opa was roped into making a fire outside and roasting spiderdogs with Sam. And of course there were lots and lots of presents, including some all the way from Argentina from Auntie Christine.
