Thanksgiving 2010

So we spent a week in Florida for Thanksgiving and had a really good time.  Unfortunately, we forgot to take lots of pictures.  The kids are really getting to enjoy family and of course Aunt Sarah is always a favorite.  It was even warm enough to swim a little bit – the air was.  Apparently the water was freezing, but they didn’t seem to mind.

November 2010

Early November we had a very nice visit from Mimi and Pop.  The kids just adore them.  Amelia ropes anyone she can into reading to her and Alex will ask twenty times a day – Pop, come and get me??  We also had a visit from my Dad’s cousin Tom and his wife Nancy.  It was so wonderful from them to finally get to meet the kids and for all of us to catch up.  The kids are doing great.  They are talking more and more.  It is so funny to listen to their little conversations.  They both love to sing and know their ABC song pretty well.  They can also both count to 15 I believe.  They play tons together but just at much fit.  I have already caught them wrestling.  Isn’t it a little early for that!?!?!  Kids will be kids I suppose…

love their little faces
