Thanksgiving and Jocelyn's Birthday!

This is going to be a fun crossover entry with Jocelyn's Rock Star Diary since we have a lot of the same pictures, so make sure to check out her blog for more family fun.

Anyway, Wednesday afternoon, Geoff and Kari arrived with their son (my nephew) Brady. Here are some pictures from Wednesday.

Grandparents' houses always have the coolest stuff, so I wandered around taking pictures of some of my favorite things around Grandma and Poppy's house.

I was actually trying to stay out of the picture, but it came out looking kinda cool in a creepy way:

Lots of stuff:

Don't grandparent's have the best stuff ever?

After Thanksgiving dinner we came back home to celebrate Jocelyn's birthday.

Hi Lauren, I just discovered your blog - I'm one of Jocelyn's neighbors. She told me she has a beautiful sister about my age and that I had to check it out. Are you coming to Brooklyn for her birthday? You guys will have to stop by...
