Thanksgiving at the Braddocks, with Grammy and Grampa

We spent Thanksgiving with Eric's folks in Pasco, WA. We got to hang out with Jenny and our 4  nephews. Much fun and food was had by all.

Penelope meets her new cousin Forest

Hi Ho Cherry-O, Gavin won every round. I think the secret is not wearing a shirt.

Penelope with her pretty blue eyes, don't bother her she's watching football

Cousins' Closet...Congratulations!

I'd like to congratulate Becky Bunch and Sarah Thompson and they're families on their amazing consignment sale.  It turned out great and they've still got another day. They've been blessed, but I think it's even bigger than they imagined.  Good luck tomorrow ladies! They ended up having a news crew there at the sale today and Penelope ended up being on the news this evening.  She's our little celeb now.  Becky and Mike posted the clip on their blog "theBunchBunch" if you want to take have a look-see. Thanks Mike and Becky!

The Pumpkin Patch with Penelope

We went to our first pumpkin patch as a family Saturday.

We met up with our friends, the Bordens and the Parkers.

The sweet kids dressed up. Penelope was a frog and the other little girls were ladybugs.

It was a brisk day and all the kids missed their naps, but amazingly there were no tantrums (not children or adults).  Chili dogs, curly fries and apple cider slushies never tasted so good.  At times I look forward to Penelope walking and talking, then I see the other small children doing these activities (although very well behaved) and I think, I should really enjoy every minute of Penelope's immobility. 

The perfect moms picture; always something going on.

Courtney with Braelee, Penelope and I, and Kristen with Wren.

The frog was very tired and still put up with our antics.

The spoils. Good work Jeff.
