Jeffrey had a very busy weekend (as did we, of course)! On Saturday, we checked out Parade the Circle, put on by the Cleveland Museum of Art. This free event is a great representation of Cleveland’s art community! From the colorful to the unique to the musical, the parade had something for everyone.

I couldn’t help but think about how lucky we are to live in a city that not only has such awesome cultural events, but also has cultural events that are accessible to all. 1,500 parade participants and over 80,000 attendees (source) can attest to the fun, excitement, and value of events such as Parade the Circle! I know we had a wonderful time!

On Sunday, we attended our niece Raylynn’s 6th birthday party at the Riverfront YMCA. From fun with balloons and a pinata, to lots of energy burned off in the gymnastics and rock climbing area, the kids had a fun afternoon!

It’s great to see Jeffrey getting to the age where he can participate and enjoy things with his cousins!

So, all in all, a busy weekend for our little man, but a really fun one! How was your weekend?
