Our Birthday Boy

It's official ... we have a teenager in the house! We celebrated Spencer's 13th birthday over the weekend with dinner at our favorite Chinese restaurant, going to the homecoming football game, a sleepover, and a birthday party with family and friends. At the Chinese restaurant, our favorite waitresses surprised us with a birthday cake for Spencer. It was soooo sweet!



For birthday presents, Spencer had most everyone contributing towards his guitar fund (or his book collection). He was so excited to learn he'd saved and received enough to buy the electric guitar he's had his eye on for the last several months. I took him to his lesson a little early today so he could make the big purchase. He was so excited ... and I was so excited for him. So, for all you who contributed, here he is with his new guitar and amplifier.

Now, if we could just bring Malia home so he can finally be a big brother!
