Several years ago at Thanksgiving, we were at Joe's grandparent's house for the day. His Pappy is an overalls man. I don't think that I have ever seen him in anything else other than on Sunday's. It just so happened that Gabriel and he were wearing overalls and a flannel shirt that day. They looked pretty cute together so we had to take a picture. His grandparents are wonderful "salt of the earth" people. They live so far back in the country, that you would never find their house. They were born and raised there. There is a barn at the back of their property that the kids play in all day long. The creek runs thru the field and the boys spend hours there fishing and rummaging. It is the perfect place for kids to play. Sadly, his grandma passed away this month. She was the sweetest lady that there ever was. We loved to visit with pappy and grandma.

How cute...matching grandpa. What a great little memory. Look at Gabe how little...they really do grow so fast.
Lisa,
I am SO sorry to hear grandma Obie passed away. She was such a darling lady. I will always treasure those wonderful holidays with the extended Pennington clan deep in the back woods of Tennessee. It gets me choked up just thinking about it.

Lisa,
Kim, Tre, and Tabatha got here last night. It makes me miss you even more. We were talking about all the fun Pennington holidays together. Your posting on our blog made me cry. I hope we can come for a summer vacation next summer when everything is calmed down (no managing or building houses!). We wondered if Kyle is in Rexburg for fall semester. Let us know so we can have him over if he is here. Miss you tons and think about you often.
Charity
