welcome family...

We welcomed hubby's parents, grandmother, and brother to town late Tuesday night. This is their first time to Cleveland {except hubby's dad who graciously helped move us as newlyweds up here 4 years ago from Texas}. We have been spending the last several days showing them the town!We took them to our favorite Cleveland historical site...Lake View Cemetery. If ever in Cleveland this is a must see and all my local friends...you should be ashamed for never venturing to the East Side to check out this little gem.

It has the coolest landscapes, the most unique monuments, and such historic burial sites of some of the most rich and famous...Rockefellers : President Garfield : Wade Chapel {see below} : John Hay {President Lincoln's Secretary} : Eliot Ness : and many more...

Gran treated us on Day 2 to an afternoon at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame {the house that rock built}...

Of course we also ate great meals, had lots of laughs, and spent wonderful moments with family...a great celebration for graduation week! We are so glad they were able to come and sight see in Cleveland while we still called it "home".
