swiss thanksgiving

my sister and her family came down to visit us for the thanksgiving weekend.  instead of the usual turkey din-dins, we had cheese fondue, swiss style!  It was a fun and filling meal, and we topped it off with fresh pumpkin pie, our ode to a traditional thanksgiving - yum!

Our kids are best buds, especially the boys, 2 peas in a pod.  And the girls are becoming closer as they get older and learn to form friendships.  So it's very sweet to see how much they love each other and love to be together.  it takes me back to the tight bond we had with our special mcl. cousins when we were young.  we had so much fun together, and could hardly wait until the next time.



the girls wearing matching jammie bottoms I made them. They love being 'twins', and have quite a few same/similar outfits.  There's not so much of a height difference in reality, J was standing more in front.  Still enough of a difference though to get lots of great hand-me-downs! They're only 8 months apart, so that'll end in time :(
