I am so thankful for moments like these. We spent Thanksgiving at my parents in Nashua this year.. We had been hosting Turkey Day at our place for the past couple years, but this year we were incredibly glad that my parents were in charge! My Gramma came, which was so wonderful. This was the first Thanksgiving without my Grandpa, so we were all glad to be together. Mom made her yummy cheesy potatoes and Dad was nice enough to make me some yummy vegetarian stuffing. We were grateful to be together and enjoy the yummy food. Happy Thanksgiving.

A friend indeed
We had some amazing people stay with us for the past month. My brother- in-law Scott (Brian's older brother), sister-in-law Elisa, and 2 nieces Matilde and Arianna. They just recently moved from Italy and we were grateful to have the opportunity to get to know them better. It is quite amazing that our girls are the same age too. Matilde was born 3 weeks before Piper and Arianna was born 8 days before Maysie. We couldn't have planned it better (and we really didn't!). Piper and Matilde were incredibly sweet together. I think Matilde taught Piper a little about make believe and Piper taught Matilde the importance of Curious George! We miss you guys!

First Real Haircut
We took Piper to get her first real haircut last weekend and she looks GREAT! She was such a brave little lady, letting the crazy hairdresser who didn't speak at all cut her hair. We took her to Snip Its, where we expected great kid friendly service and ended up with a lunatic hairdresser who shouldn't even be cutting hair at SuperCuts. She didn't even talk to us and seemed annoyed that Piper made a fuss about getting into the chair. We will not be back. After we celebrated her cute haircut at Baja Fresh and then Cold Stone Creamery. A wonderful end to a very odd day.

Trick or Treat
We went trick or treating in the neighborhood with family. Brian's brother Scott and our sister in law Elisa are staying with us, along with their 2 little ones, Matilde and Arianna. Matilde is only 3 weeks older than Piper and Arianna is 8 days older than Maysie. Scott and Brian carved the pumpkins and then the ladies got decked out in their sweet costumes. Piper and Matilde were pro's at trick or treating this year. After getting a giant bag of candy each, a plateful of homemade cookies from our nice neighbors, and $10 from a 3 legged dog........, we called it a night.
Strep is pretty crappy
So last week I started feeling pretty crummy. My throat hurt and felt like there were razors stuck in there. I went to the doctor Thursday, and I had strep. By Sunday, both Maysie and Piper had it and we had a house full of antibiotics. Piper loves her pink medicine, and Maysie gags everytime she has to have some. We are finally all on the mend and I am grateful that our sweet house guests were not comtaminated with the strep bug!
