Summer 2010

Needless to say, we have been very bad about keeping up with the blog recently. That is because we were so busy having summer fun. So this post is a little glimpse into all of the fun times we had during the summer of 2010. Thank you to everyone that joined in the fun !
Below is a random (and out of order) mix of pictures that chronicle some of the highlights of the summer.
Enjoy and thank you for your patience waiting for us to publish a post :)

Nothing says summer, more than the PMC. This event is a Spencer Family tradition. As most of you know, George completed his tenth PMC in August. We all enjoy that weekend and watching him cycle across the state each summer. Maybe someday the girls will do the PMC with their Dad :)

A picture of the girls relaxing during the hot, hot summer.




Ellie. Enough said :)

The girls on the go.

Ellie and Grammy hanging out.

Ellie going for a walk on Papa's birthday. I will explain more below.

Almost all of the cousins (we are missing Koda). We decided to go for a walk in the dark to the "the old bone yard"- (cemetery) on Papa's birthday. The kids had to much fun carrying flashlights and going for a walk in the dark. And going to the cemetery was an appropriate way to celebrate Papa's birthday. He loves the old bone yard !

Papa and his awesome birthday cake that Aunt Janet made.

Speaking of Robert and Janet. We spent quite a bit of time with them this summer. Thanks for playing with us whenever we come up to visit Nana and Papa.

And here they are again !

And what would summer be without painted toenails ! By the end of the summer I was pretty good at painting Isabelle's nails. But it is harder than it looks !

Isabelle and her girls at her birthday party.

One of the many times we went to the playground this summer.

Grampy working on the swing set. Definitely one of the highlights of the summer.

This summer we went into the city a few times. Isabelle loves visiting the big city.

This is a picture of her waiting for the train on our way into city.

We spent quite a bit of time at the beach. This is a picture of a special day at the beach. Isabelle had so much fun playing with Jules and Tyler all day.

Marc and Jill are great friends too :) We had a fun day in the city with them a few weeks ago.

Isabelle, her first Shirley Temple, and her BFF Jill :)

The girls, Daddy, and Marc. They had fun playing on the Make Way for Ducklings- Ducks.

We also got to visit with Meredith. It was a short visit. But it was great to see her.

Danielle and the girls. This is a picture of her last visit before she moved to Philadelphia. We all miss her. But we will see her soon.

We snuck away one day and went to the zoo with Bethany. It was so wonderful to see her and spend the day with her. The zoo was so fun.

Ellie and Bethany.
