The past few weeks have been busy with weddings, babies, holidays, trophies, ice skating, beach visits, trees falling, friends visiting and overall craziness.  Below is a few snapshots we captured along the way.  Life continues to be a wild ride with these fun loving girls but we wouldn't have it any other way.  Enjoy!


The girls pretending to be "Mommies" with babies in their bellies!!  We can wait a few years to be Grandparents!!


Isabelle played on a soccer team this past Fall. She loved it and actually scored the game winning goal (on her own net) in the last game of the season ;-)  We are very proud of Isabelle and her athletic endeavors :-)


After a long day of action, the tired athlete rests holding her prize!



Our friend Isaac came to visit us from CA in October. While we were all at a wedding, a nasty storm swept through the North East dropping some heavy wet snow.  As you can see from above, a tree fell into our yard - luckily missing our house and causing minimal damage!  It was great to hang out with Isaac and the girls had a blast carving pumpkins and tackling Isaac.


The cousins enjoying some time on a nice leather recliner!!


Ellie stealing some hugs and kisses from Grampy!!



Although Halloween was postponed in our town due to the storm mentioned earlier, that didn't stop us from having fun with our neighbors.  We hosted a fantastic party on Halloween and begged for candy later in the week.  It was a week of fun and candy and the girls enjoyed parading around the neighborhood on a warm Fall night.


The cousins making cookies with Grammy!!  I think more flour ending up on their faces than on the table!


The girls being silly some more - pretending to take naps together!!


A special Congratulations to our friends Marc and Jill on the birth of their beautiful little girl - Mia! We were lucky enough to hang out with them a bit and meet little Mia. Congratulations and good luck!




A nice Thanksgiving tradition is seeing Aunt Eileen!!  She traveled up from NJ and spent some time with us. The girls had a blast with Aunt Eileen while doing puzzles, going for walks, making desserts and just overall silliness.  Grammy made a fantastic turkey and all the extras one could ever want.  We sure have a lot to be thankful for.


Also on the Thanksgiving holiday, we traveled up to Nana and Papa's house.  We had a great time seeing our North Shore family and enjoying the beautiful weather while partaking in Happy Hour!  Mary and I took Isabelle for a little hike and had a great time launching rocks into the ocean ; our arms were sore!





Isabelle went skating as well over Thanksgiving.  She had a blast making her way around the rink and although she fell a few times, she got right back up and yelled "I don't care".  She wants to go back and we hope it is for the skating aspect and not the candy and soda!


The girls just being the girls................

We hope our loyal blog readers are doing well and we look forward to "Catching Up" soon over the Christmas holiday!!
