Santa came to Mommy's school for a visit and we had a wonderful morning with him!

Grosse Ile visit...

One of my favorite weekends this past summer- visiting Grandpa McNeill, GiGi, and Aunt Abbey in Grosse Ile!

Jack loved swimming with Grandpa-

first thoughts about the boat! After just a few minutes, he LOVED the boat though!)

Molly and Audrey-

I loved this picture of Audrey, too!

Father's Day 2010

It was a beautiful day to celebrate the most wonderful Daddy in our lives!

We went to Clauge Park to visit the ducks and play on the playground.

We had a yummy Eggs Benedict brunch at home
We love you, Barry!
You are the most amazing Father...
thank you for your constant love and support
and for making time each day to laugh and play!

Mother's Day

Mother's Day was truly one of the best days I have ever had... We had a wonderful breakfast together as a family (stuffed french toast and mimosa's, if memory serves me correctly!) and then we visited the Cleveland Children's Museum.

I loved watching my little ones explore and have a great time-

driving the RTA bus...

playing in the nursery...

playing in the grocery store...


more grocery store...

and the water table was the biggest hit of the whole day!

Audrey's 1st birthday

Happy Birthday, Audrey!

Some of Audrey's friends came to celebrate her special day...

Audrey had her own little lady bug cake and she really enjoyed it!

Here is a close-up of the lady bug cupcakes I made for the big birthday bash.

Happy 1st Birthday to the sweetest little lady,
Audrey Kay Spurlock!

Family fun at the Nature Center

We had such a nice Sunday afternoon visiting the Nature Center. Jack and Audrey were both fascinated by all of the exhibits!
