Seems like alot of you are from NY/NJ area, since I have never been there; are the suburbs more like smaller towns or big cities? (My big city qualification would be around 130,000. It's about how big our biggest city is in the state. Small town would be around 2,000.)
You should totally make a trip to the East Coast at some point! The kids (once a bit older) would love it! And so would you and DH!!!
