Spencer is EIGHT!!!

Spencer turned eight years old today. We are so excited for his baptism later this month. We had a good time celebrating his birthday today. Here are some fun pictures from his special day.

Sleeping peacefully until...

We wake him up by singing happy birthday so he can open his presents.
He got a real set of golf clubs like his dad.

Eight things we love about Spencer:
  1. He has a kind heart.
  2. He is so patient with his brothers and sisters.
  3. He is selfless - He shares or takes the last turns if it will make his brother and sisters happy.
  4. He is a peacemaker - I was reviewing the notes that my mother-in-law took of Spencer's baby blessing today and he was blessed to be a peacemaker. He is fulling that blessing.
  5. He has cute red hair.
  6. He likes to tell jokes. - Some of them are funny.
  7. He is a good athlete.
  8. He loves to help.

I forgot him and my Jacob are so close. Jake will be baptised in Jan. December was too soon with a new baby. It looks like he had a GREAT birthday! It's such a great milestone and a very important birthday! Happy Birthday Spencer.
