Chagrin Falls, Turtle Park, and baby Jack's birthday party

Today we went to Chagrin Falls. It's a cute little town (could be out of a magazine, it's so cute) that was having a memorial day fair, not sure if that's the right word. Anyway they had rides for Jack which he LOVED, food and fun. We wanted to get out of the house and thought it would be fun to check it out. Jack enjoyed four rides, then we ate lunch and got ice cream before heading home. It was so fun to do something fun together as a family, we really need to find more things to do out here, because I know there's a lot we just need to find them! I think this was his favorite, he loves motorcycles! He must be a Mecham!
Once again trying to give a thumbs up.
He loved the mary go round, especially that the horse went up and down.
We never got any pictures of the falls because you have to walk down a lot of stairs to get down by the water falls and we weren't really feeling up to it, Pete and his knee anyway. So we'll take some when we visit again. Jack did love to feed the ducks and good news, we have a lake by our house that he can go feed the ducks. I guess we'll be doing that more often.

Enjoying his small ice cream cone, hope he doesn't get an ear infection from it :)

This is Turtle Park. Its a small park located on a busy street, but Jack seems to really like this one, I would prefer others but he always asks for turtle park.

Maybe he likes all the other toys he can play with, kind of gross but we wash up good afterwards. There is also a small playground that is perfect for his size!
The reason it is called turtle park, the giant turtle. JC we thought you might like these pictures of the turtle!
Baby Jack turns one! We went to his birthday party tonight, he is such a sweet boy, lets hope he stays that way. Check out Stacey's blog for more pictures of the party. This was the best picture we could get with all the kids and there were only four of them.
Finn was sweet kissing on Jack! While Jackson just enjoyed the balloons and toys!

Hello Mecham's! I hope you don't mind that we found your blog and took a look! Jackson is so cute and growing up so fast! I can't believe Pete is already done with a year of dental school! Wow, how the time flies--probably not so fast for you! It looks like we won't be going to dental school this year but we've come to terms with that fact. We just don't think it was in the plans for us this year--Heavenly Father works in mysterious ways! Surgery, Pete, no fun! Get better soon! Well, have a fun summer together and we'll keep checking your blog to see what fun you are up to!

Looks like we had the same idea for the weekend! We should have just gone together! I'm glad you had a good time! There is another little "fair" coming up in Twinsburg. It's really small- but they have free pony rides, and face painting. Our kids liked it.
