The BIG 1-2!

I know that I say on EVERY.SINGLE. childs' birthday post that I can't believe how old they are getting - but seriously!
 I CAN'T BELIEVE HE IS 12!!!
Twelve is a very weird age. Not weird for them necessarily, but weird for mom. It is the last year before teenage-hood, the last year of elementary school, the end of childhood. Plus the beginning of things: the Priesthood, Young Men's, cracking voices. Yikes! I just want him to stay itty bitty forever!

After his football game yesterday we picked up a close friend, Ryan and took the family to Peter Piper Pizza for lunch. It was super fun! (but, didn't Peter Piper Pizza used to be cheap?)

Olivia, she couldn't believe that she won so many tickets!
 Then after a day of relaxation and hanging out with his buddy we had his special birthday dinner. Spencers' request this year was completely different from years' past. He wanted homemade Waffles, Bacon & Orange Juice and Whoopie Pies for dessert. Dinner was super yum! What's not to love about sugar & bacon for dinner?

I made monster Whoopie pies! They were pretty good too. Then we finished the night off with a family movie night (Hunger Games). It was a perfect day.



oh! He got duped by the trick candles! hehe!

Happy Birthday Spencer! We love you mucho!

I hear you on the "can't believe he's 12" thing! It goes by too fast, doesn't it?
Yes, PPP USED to be cheap. Not anymore, but still worth every penny for me.
I love you Spencer!
