Every week, we all get together with out great neighbors the O'Malley and Andersen families. The kiddos play and the moms get to talk and maybe even have a few sips of wine. Evan and Ben love learning all sorts of new things from their friends Izzy and Carolyn who are a few years older than them, and their starting to learn how to entertain our little neighbor, baby Cooper. Whether we're enjoying s'mores outside in the cul-de-sac, or just going a little crazy indoors, we're always having fun.

(Jill and I illustrating the fact that, yes, I am short. But if you look, I'm the same height as her in the torso, I just have no legs.)
We also love to get together with our friends the South family. We've been friends since Evan and Nathan met in the 2's class in preschool. A few weeks ago, we all got together again for sleepover #3. Staying all night gives the kiddos a chance to play all night and the grown ups a chance to actually hang out and play games while the kids are sleeping, or at least pretending to sleep. This time, we all enjoyed a delicious pre-Thanksgiving dinner. We even pulled out the fancy china. After dinner, the adults all played games while the kids tried not to go back to sleep as long as they could. What a great time with a great family!

Thanks to all of our awesome friends for keeping us all sane and making life a lot more fun!
