One of the highlights of our trip was introducing Sam to his cousins! We met up at a skating rink for skating and arcade games. Sam was especially taken with his big cousin, Ari. She was really good at playing with him!

Sam’s Time In Phoenix – Part Two

Father’s Day 2011
I wrote this on the airplane on the way home, but I guess I forgot to post it!
Father’s Day finds us traveling home from Phoenix. We weren’t lucky enough to score a seat for Sam this time, so Sam chose to snuggle up with his Daddy for a nap. I think Daddy liked it!
We celebrated father’s day with Dave’s dad on Thursday with a trip to a pottery painting shop. Sam was a good sport about putting his handprints onto our dishes!
This morning we shared a father’s day brunch with Abdon and Mike before heading out to the airport.
Mr. Castillo’s Opus
Sam, working on his masterpiece.
Samuel Castillo – Quality Control Engineer
Sam took his responsibilities seriously, making sure that everything in the reception hall was up to snuff before the ceremony!
Taking Time to Refuel
While waiting for things to start up, Sam took some time to sit down in the middle of the room and indulge in a cup of Cheerios! (Feel free to leave your audio off – the conversation…lacks drama)
The Wedding
Okay, I know that Robbie and Katrina didn’t get married just to provide me with photo-shooting opportunities with Sam but who am I to look a gift horse in the mouth!?
Sam in Wonderland
Our time here in Phoenix has been wonderful. Sam has absolutely loved his time with the Bradshaw/Navarro/Adam families and has thrived under all of the attention. He has turned into such a ham! The following are a number of photos from the days leading up to the wedding (wedding photos to come later…)
Sam’s First Flight
I’ve been dreading our flight to Phoenix for a while now. I’ve had visions of the worst baby meltdowns that I’ve witnessed in the past, amplified by my fears. Instead, though, Sam was a dream. Of course, he wanted to get down, move around, and investigate his surroundings, but once he realized that moving around a lot wasn’t an option, he settled into the flight and started to enjoy himself. Ultimately he ended up dropping of and going to sleep, but not before he had a chance to enjoy the scenery!
