Spencer’s Birthday Party/Weekend at Nana’s

Yes, more birthday celebrating for Spencer. The weekend after our day at Hershey we went down to my parent’s house to have a little birthday party for Spencer.

It’s always fun at Nana’s house! I worked on a furniture refinishing project (more on that later), we played with toys, and I sorted TONS and TONS of Legos. Nathan has really gotten into Legos since his birthday and my mom has kept lots of them from when my brother and I were kids. We found sooooo many Hogwarts legos! Nathan insisted I try to make the Hogwarts Express, which then caused me to start sorting all the legos by color so that I could find the pieces that I needed. It took forever, but was so satisfying when I was done ;) There was swimming outside and riding trikes, making pina coladas and getting ready for Spencer’s party!

We did a racecar themed party this year. It was really fun to put together, but the bummer was that none of our invited guests were able to come! It was a combination of getting the info out too late and the regular summer busy-ness that it just didn’t work out for anyone that day. But we had a good time together as a family and we ate like kings from all the food we’d prepared :)IMG_3051

I made a cake for the occasion – I’ve been having so much fun getting back into making cakes again :)IMG_3049

Spencer was soooo excited for his cake! I made a chocolate cake with peanut butter mousse and he loved it!IMG_3061

We had the kiddie pool and the water table out and Spencer got to open the last few presents we’d saved for the party. IMG_3057
