Spencer's Path of Destruction

Just a quick update on the last post, since I didn't seem to be making much sense last night: Spencer came home from Scout Camp with those scratches all over his face after a little football incident between him and a much bigger guy (you should have seen the other guy). He was the legend at Scout Camp all week for his "scarface".

Now in honor of all the new attention his scarface has brought to him, I thought I'd take this opportunity to write a post that Spencer's been bugging me to make for the last several weeks.

So, does anyone need Spence to babysit Friday night?

  1. You better not send him here, as there are plenty of problems already with our lovely place. (We do have half a roof now though!)

  2. Knock on wood-nothing happened the week we spent with him last month. No ferry boats sank after our cruise over to Victoria-nothing bad. Everything pretty normal-except of the Space Needle thing. So it must be a sporadic thing.

    We love you Spence-no matter how jinxed you are.

  4. Um, I think I'll pass.

    Here's hoping Spence continues to stay one step ahead of his path of destruction!

  8. Just in case anyone was wondering, Spencer is actually a very caring, careful babysitter. Nothing (and no one) has ever been broken on his watch. :)
