May 13th was a big day in the Spencer household. Mom, Robin and Shelly were in town, it was Mother's day and it was Brenda's birthday! We started the day with a gift exchange for all the Mother's and for Brenda.

Here is collage of Brenda holding all the great gifts she received.
After exchanging gifts, Brenda, John, Sophia, Robin and Mom headed out for a special Mother's day brunch at the Newport Officer's Club. (Since Shelly had surprised us with her visit, we didn't have a ticket for her. She "reluctantly" agreed to spend a couple of hours at the Newport Grand Casino playing the slot machines while we ate.)

After the brunch, the family took advantage of the beautiful weather and took a stroll around the scenic surroundings of the club.

After the stroll around the Officer's Club, and picking Shelly up at the Casino, the family took a ride to Easton's Beach (also called First Beach) in Newport.
