Spencer turned 9 this year, he is such a great boy, not a little boy anymore!
In our family everyone is involved in the present opening
Spencer really wanted a Sherlock Holmes hat. He wants to be a detective when he grows up. So that is why we had a detective party. They had to complete several "training exercises." Each completed exercise received a piece of the puzzle to the missing birthday cake. Spencer thought he had it figured out since it was an ice cream cake, but he started getting very worried when the photo did not show our freezer.
This was my favorite thing- a laser maze.
Our neighbors let us put the cake in their freezer, this may have been the first time I tricked Spencer.
It was a really fun party. Spencer is a great kid. He has been writing a lot this summer, and even wrote a series of books with a blanket as the main character. Right now he is making an encyclopedia of imaginary super heroes. He is nothing if not creative. Luckily he is other things too, like kind. He is a great big brother to his little sisters, and even to James although he loved to tease. He really tries hard to listen to the Spirit and do what is right. We love this boy!
