Phew!!! October has been crazy and oh so good...but I have to say, I'm looking forward to slowing down a bit. I think I'll just let the pictures speak for themselves!
First, we had a Hatch Green Chile Festival at our house - at which, a record amount of chile rellenos were consumed! We are trying to keep the party spirit alive and well here at the Brannonkamp Commune.
What's a good festival without a live band!??
Nash cuddling up with the ladies as the evening comes to an end.
We spent one evening with the fam watching the world series. Nash always has a blast with his sweet cousins. Here, they are indulging him in Ring Around the Rosie...one more time (yeah - I fall for that ALL the time, too, girls!).

Oh my!!!! The Marks. No - no alcohol involved here. Just good ole fashioned fun...I guess.
This was only the beginning of our weekend trip to Marshall/Shreveport for a Chris Tomlin concert with our good friends from church.

I seriously have THE most hospitable family on the planet! My brother let our friends stay at the lakehouse and my folks cooked and kept Nash for us while we were at the concert - all without batting an eye! Here is Aaron and Cary about to set out on their exploration of my favorite place on earth (Caddo Lake).
My greatest blessings
Jodi and Mark - watch out for those gators!
