A lot to be thankful for...

Happy Thanksgiving! We had a great time in Big Sky with Grandma and Grandpa Neal, Dave, the Corcoran's (his housemates family), and friends. We had 2 turkey's, one roasted, one bar-b-q'ed - they were so good! It was also fun to see what other families have as Thanksgiving tradition, I think that we have picked up a few new ones along the way. From the sounds of things, a Big Sky Thanksgiving is going to become an annual event...I am already looking forward to next year!
We have had a lot of firsts at our household over the past few weeks. Jack and Sophie have had their first "bites" of cereal, the first night in their nursery, their first snow and so on. It has been so much fun to see all the changes and their personality's starting to shine through - I never thought that motherhood could be so much fun!
We are really looking forward to spending the holiday season in Spokane, we have had enough traveling for awhile (5 trips in 10 weeks) and from the looks of it, we will have more then enough snow to get us in the Christmas spirit!

Their first night in their nursery, they still sleep better together, so we alternate cribs, and don't worry the blanket is tucked in on the sides!

Happy Halloween

We have been enjoying the fall, which happens so quickly on this side of the mountains. We have had fun the last couple of weekends with friends from Seattle visiting...dinner parties are sure different with twins around!
Here are a few pictures from the last couple of weeks.
