I believe to be a male & female. The big one has a gray hourglass shape on abdomen. Kinda reminds me of a black widow dressed up.

These spiders are in the family Theridiidae (cobweb/comb-footed spiders); they appear to be a male and female Enoplognatha ovata, a widespread species whose color pattern can be extremely variable. See http://tinyurl.com/2bdtqqv for some examples.
