Happy Happy Happy

Happy belated Thanksgiving to all our friends and family! We managed to get to Fairborn for a few hours and visited Scott's family. My mom helped us celebrate on Wednesday (as well as putting up some holiday decor, which is taking me WAY longer this year! Pictures coming soon...)





 

The girls enjoyed their first trip to Grandma's house. Scott and I survived as well! We were supposed to visit with the Oroszi side of the family this week also but the girls decided to time their 6 month growth spurt with the Thanksgiving holiday. Wow, what an interesting few days. We barely left the house for 3 days. (Feeding two every 1.5 to 2 hours is intense to say the least.) Thankfully everyone is coming up for a bit of air now and back to a more normal routine, whatever that is :) We have our two month shots to look forward to next!

We also celebrated Heather's 15th birthday and the OSU/Michigan game (Scott is still recovering!) Aunt Ann made Heather this awesome advent calendar for her birthday. She gets gifts for a whole month!! I am going to steal this idea next year and use it for Christmas. Its such an awesome gift.



 

Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!

City of Lights

Paris is one of those cities that really can't be captured by pictures alone. Scott and I both agree that this city is by far our favorite place in the world and that when you get off the train you get this awesome feeling when you look deep into the streets. There is an amazing sense of history combined with the latest fashion and style. Pretty much everything in Paris is historical topped off with fresh bread, flowers and pastries on every corner. Not to mention French is kind of amazing to listen to in my opinion. Everything just sounds so much more formal! There is a story in everything.  I love getting lost in the streets of Paris and if anyone asks me what my favorite part of the trip is I would say the walks "to" the monuments or historical sites. (Of course there are snacks along the way.)



Since Scott and I were in Paris for the first time in March, 2012 we hit some of the same sites but added a few new ones as well including Sacre Coer and Versailles. Both were spectacular  I wish I was better at capturing proportion in our pictures.



We hit a few cafes along the way and then of course, the Eiffel Tower. Which I have to say 2nd to the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio, gives me chills every time I see it.



At this point we had our poses down for pictures but decided to have a little fun at the end of the trip.

I am going to start off the weekend dreaming about Paris and pretending my tea tastes like the amazing wine we had every night!

Trick or Treat!

Trick or Treat was kind of a bust in our neighborhood due to Hurricane Sandy but we managed to make the best of it. Heather sat out this year, her first year not trick or treating, but got into the spirit and handed out candy.



Scott attempted to make a bonfire, but we ended up taking cover in the garage.



Here are a few pics from the rainy night, we still managed to eat a lot of candy, cupcakes and homemade pumpkin seeds...





...and we had a visit from Isabelle and Kelly! She was a big fan of Reese Cups. Leave it to Uncle Scott to introduce them to her :)



She was a tired but super cute princess, worn out from her Halloween Parade at school.





Hope everyone had a safe Trick or Treat Night!
