Pennington Place: 2008

Sunday, November 30, 2008

So, long time, no blog:) It's been a hectic year for the Pennington crew! I've been slacking terribly in the blogging department!

In an effort to catch everyone up to where we left off, I've pulled a few pictures to show some of the things we've been up to!

When I left you last it was late summer and Lucy and I were preparing for our trip to....Choir Camp! Yep, almost like "Band Camp":)

Here she is and the picture following is her choir (which is the smallest of the four choirs) before family day! You will all be proud to know that I went with her and actually made it home in one piece!

Then our school year started right away! This is my 1st grader with his teacher, Mrs. Huish!

Here is Lucy and her 3rd grade teacher, Mrs. Geisler!

Shortly after school started, Will joined the cub scouts and is proud to be a Tiger Scout!!!

So cute!

Emma had surgery on her feet on September 30th @ Phoenix Children's Hospital. The surgery was a success but it was the hardest yet of all of the kids procedures! We were in the hospital for a lot longer than we had anticipated:(

Here we were watching Polar Express 3-D and the kids had milkshakes!!!

This was some random shopping day that we hit a DQ for a break!

Mother Nature's Farm picking out our pumpkins and as you can see not everyone was into it:)

Better late than never! Emma was baptised on October 26th! She had Aunt Mandy, Aunt Amy & Uncle Nate as God-parents! It was a happy day for us!

Aunt Amy & Uncle Nate

Here is the Halloween crew!

We went to a Halloween event at school and got to dress up!!!

Tinkerbell

Grandma and Emma's boyfriend!

Aunt Mandy was able to come!

We went to see High School Musical 3 on Saturday afternoon!

Lucy and Will before school one morning looking sweet!

We have been remodeling our kitchen and Lucy was a HUGE help when it came time to paint!

These next few were from the school fun fest out at Schnepf Farms!

Emma loved the corn!

Emma was scared of the tunnel:)

Buddies! Will & Spencer!

Party till we drop!

With schedules being so crazy we always end up giving the kids what seems like the

never-ending birthday. By the time we celebrate with my mom, my dad, BJ's parents and Will's friends, we end up stretching July 17th until August!

This was at the party with Grandma T-Bear! Will got LOTS of cool stuff including Guitar Hero for his DS which is pretty cool from what I'm told!

Grandma & Grandpa Leah (Pennington) had the BEST cake ever! They even put in a sparkler!

Will had a sleepover with his closest friends this past Friday! We went to Makutu's Island and then to Streamers for dinner & ice cream! They were so excited as you can see here in the car! Later that night night the entire group played army, made forts, watched movies and followed up by toilet papering the room of the first group to fall asleep. Sorry Boys!!!

Will Turns 6!!!

Oh my gosh, Will is 6! I swear my life is flashing before my eyes! I can hardly breathe when I think about how fast life is! One minute I'm wondering if Will is going to be able to breathe on his own and the next he's telling me that the only way a girl will ever marry him is if he stops drooling...FOR GOOD!

More than the other two, BJ and I never know what is going to come out of Will's mouth! Seriously, a song, juice, naughty words, vomit (on demand - it's amazing, really), belching, a chunk of food or something TOTALLY sweet and unexpected! He is NEVER boring and definitely keeps us on our toes! Here are a few things about Will that you may not know.
