Spencer's 2nd Birthday






We have had some real fun over the last couple of weeks as we have celebrated Spencer's birthday. I decided I wanted to try my hand at making his birthday cake this year and I was actually really happy with how it turned out. I am a little insecure about posting a picture because it definitely pales in comparison to others I have seen (Danny and Nichole). That's okay though Spencer loved it. He is really into dirt right now, ever since he watched the trucks working behind our house with Grandma, so that is what inspired this Cookies and Cream Creation. We shard this cake with the Miller family on Spencer's birthday and were lucky enough to have Uncle Nate come all the way from California Ü.

I don't have any pictures from the party at Grandma Scott's because I forgot my camera. It was a lot of fun and Spencer got his new bike which is now a hit with all of his friends. He also got a bubble gun that I totally have enjoyed. I let Spencer have a turn every once in awhile.

We wrapped up the festivities with a party here at our apartment complex. There were 6 kids with birthdays around Spencer's so we had one big combined party. It was a lot of fun. There was a pinata, cupcakes, Creamies and friends. What more can you ask for? I guess Spencer wanted another try at the pinata because long after it was broken and the crowed had cleared I found him over by the tree swinging the stick at the empty string that was left hanging there.

Thanks everyone for making Spencer's 2nd birthday so much fun!

For freakin' cute! I LOVE the picture of him swinging at the piñata string. Also, in the picture of the kids all sitting on a sheet, look at the girl right behind Spencer. You took the picture just as she dumped her cupcake off of her plate. That is so funny! How cute are 2 year olds?!
