Easter 2008

Happy Easter!!! The Spencers celebrated Easter this year by visiting the family in Brockton, MA. What a fun weekend, but we ate way to much candy (Although Baby Spencer seems to enjoy the sugar. He (or she) was really moving around in Mommy's belly).

*Editor's note: these pictures are not in chronological order (you can blame John).

Sophia, decked out in a hat from Uncle Rich and Auntie Cherie, checks out her Easter eggs as Joe tries to sneak a peek.

Sophia, ready for bed, poses one last time before lights out.

Sophia and Nana are all dressed up on Easter morning.

Everyone is ready to dig into Easter dinner...which went on for hours!

Sophia enjoys her meal at the kids table with Vincent and Michael.

Since it is warm enough, Daddy takes Sophia outside to play on the slide.

Sophia, Michael and Daddy play on the swings.

Sophia poses among the giant Easter eggs at "Breakfast with the Easter Bunny."

Look what Grammie gave me...a pretty bunny.

Mommy and Sophia open a basket from the Easter Bunny.

When will Spring get here???

The Spencers have gotten back into the swing of things after the Change of Command. We are looking forward to spring. However, since it is clearly still winter here in Connecticut, we are trying to make the most of it and have some fun.

Sophia loves to wear Daddy's (clean) underware as a shawl.

Its derby time...and I am leading the pack.

The Vavasseurs come for a visit. Despite the looks on the kids faces, they really had a good time!

Sophia's favorite pasttime is getting her glasses and purse and shopping around the house.

Sophia visits Nana and Papa...she loves Nana's strawberries.

Wiped out after a long day of fun.

Shelby and Sophia enjoy playtime during Stroller Class.

Change of Command Weekend

February 29th was a big day in the Spencer household. But in usual Spencer fashion, we stretched out the festivities for an entire weekend! John took command of the USS PHILADELPHIA and we were so blessed to have many family members and friends there to celebrate the day (and the weekend). Sit back and relax...this is a long one.
