Spencer’s 1st Birthday Party

We had a ton of fun celebrating Spencer’s first birthday! Alex was so excited and helped a lot with the planning, buying presents, and baking the cake. I think he was most excited to “help” Spencer open presents – but I do think he understood it was a special day for Spencer.

We chose an airplane theme for the party because Spencer loves playing with airplanes. He actually flies them in the sky and makes airplane and rocket noises, just like Alex does. It’s so fun to watch!

I’ll let the photos do most of the talking. Thank you to everyone who attended! Sorry the house got so hot! I guess the AC couldn’t keep up with 20 some people in the house on such a hot, hot day!

It didn’t take long for Spencer to figure out how to rip the wrapping paper off!

I think this is our best cake so far! Tim modeled the plane on the computer and cut out all the pieces, Alex chose the green color, and I spent forever icing it!

Hmm … this whole piece is for me?

Now what do I do? (He actually really liked it – and got SO MAD at me the next day when I tried giving him a bite off a fork. I guess he wanted to get it all over again!)
Watzins
4 generations of Watzins! Great-Grandma, Grandma (my mom), Amber & Beth (sister), and the boys!

Reading Spencer’s 1st birthday book. Grandma used the lullabye she sings to Spencer and turned it into a book! What a great way to look back at all my pictures!
