Happy Thanksgiving!

In my usual fashion, I'm a little late with holiday posts - birthday posts, etc. but better late than never (I think).  We actually spent Thanksgiving day (Thursday) at a friends house - Beth - who happens to be the God mother of little Tony and Melanie - the kids babysitter and Tony's helper during the week.  They graciously invited us over knowing that we didn't have any plans because T's mom was planning on celebrating Thanksgiving on Friday to accomodate her other son's schedules.  (I was fine with this, but don't get Tony started on this.  It just gets him mad.) 

Beth and Melanie's family have welcomed us into their lives and home and feel like have an extension of our family that we can count on at any time.  They just love seeing and playing with the babies and even arranged it so we could use our attachable high chairs.  Tony and I got to sit at the 'adult' table and the babies were at the 'kid' table with Melanie, her sister, brother and sister's boyfriend.  It was nice to not have to worry about them for a change, even though I kept looking over at them every few seconds to make sure they didn't need anything. 

After we ate, the babies went out onto their back deck to run around.

Olivia running and having a great time!

 

Tony and Olivia stomping in the leaves!  Yes that's a baby track suit that has a puppy dog in a purse on it!

 All went well until Amelia fell into the side of the deck and hit her head.  She's ok - see look - soon afterwards, she was playing in Mel's room trying on her sun glasses!

We had out second Thanksgiving on Friday with Tony's family.  Everything was also very nice there, but no additional pictures - or at least not that I have!
