Christmas time is here!

We spent Christmas Eve with Joe's family. Had lots of fun with all the cousins. We went to Candlelight service at church that evening. Then snuggled in and waited for Santa to arrive. Santa brought a kitchen and a broom, so that Braden could help Mommy with some housework.

Then we went to Grammy and Poppy's-had lots of fun again! We were very blessed this Christmas getting to spend time with both of our families! What a great holiday!

Too little naked cousins!


Grammy thought it would be fun to let Braden and Katie make cookies.

Looks like Braden used up all the decorating supplies! :)

Thanksgiving

We had a great Thanksgiving - went to Corsicana and spent the week with Grammy, Poppy, Aunt La, Fin, and Uncle B. Everyone came to Grammy's on Thursday and ate too much!

New addition

Well, Kay and Katie thought that Braden needed a little dog, so we brought home Penny! She has really made her self at home and Braden really loves her! She is just the right size for Braden - she can hold her and Penny loves to snuggle. Thanks Kay and KK!

Neighborhood fun

After a trip to Canton, Braden, GranK and I drove to Dallas to meet Grammy, Poppy, Aunt La, Fin and Uncle B at their neighborhood Halloween party. It was so fun - at the park, with music, face painting and more! What a fun family day!

Trick or Treat

By the time Halloween night came, we were already pooped out and had lots of candy. We still needed to go trick or treating so we decided to visit the Maupins! She was so funny - "trick or treat"! GranK made it in to watch before our trip to Canton! Braden got her first round of candy and then as we were leaving decided to get in line once more and trick Bill into giving her more candy!

Go Tigers

The Corsicana Tigers had a downtown pep rally. Braden really got into it! She loved all the cheerleaders, band, Calicos, well really just loved it all. She even learned how to sing "All Hail Corsicana", her mommy's school song!

Pumpkin Harvest

Wednesday night before Halloween, Northside Baptist had their Pumpkin Harvest. Braden really liked dressing up in her precious butterfly costume and doing some trick or treating and playing some games. I think Grammy and Poppy had fun too! She was too funny - she did not want to let her pumpkin, with all the candy, go! She wouldn't even share her candy with Poppy. The funniest thing had to have been when she poured all her candy out on the floor and looked at Poppy and said "How 'bout that Poppy!" Hilarious!
