Mid-November Update

The twins with their remotes... they love to change all the channels and mess things up!

The day after the tow incident

Okay, so Troy was gone for 8 full days to Colorado with his family and friends to hunt, however... the weather was too warm the first few days and too cold the last few days, so the guides offered them to be able to come back for a free hunt. So he is leaving the day after Thanksgiving for another go at it! So hopefully he will be able to get a 2 monsters and fill our freezer and have a great story to go along with it! I will keep you informed as to the outcome of his next trip. Although I am bummed for us that we will be without him for another week, I am so glad that he can take the opportunity to get out and spend time with those who mean the most to him, and spend some quality time. Also, it gives him time to get back to what he loves to do. We both have given up things in the last few years, having three kids in 23 months makes life change a bit. But one of the qualities that I have always loved about Troy is he has a passion for the outdoors, and although we both have benefited from having the girls and all the love that comes from that, I have often winced at how often he used to go fishing and hunting, and how rarely he has the opportunity to go now. However, the twins are getting older and I tell him often, he needs to get out do what makes him who he is, so he can feel whole, as well as remain "himself". He is an amazing father to our girls, but he is happier for all of us if he can just get out and get "dirty" every once in a while!
One thing that happened when Troy was gone, is Sophie dropped, & broke a bottle on her toe, the nail has since fallen off, but it was a crazy week!

Other than that, here are just some random pics from the last few days...
hope everyone is well:)
