Weekend at Bernie's

This past weekend started a whirlwind of activities for the Brister Foursome over the next several weeks. We travelled to Lafayette on Saturday to celebrate Sister Bernadine Breaux'x EIGHTIETH anniversary of being a nun. No, that's not a typo. A little background on Sister. She is Ron's mother's sister...the last living sibling (I believe there were 11?). Again, not a typo. I have met Sister on a few occassions and she's not changed one bit. Looks exactly the same, even at 95. I know the Heberts and Suzanne enjoyed seeing some old family friends at such a wonderful event.


Sister needs to realize that Patrick would likely eat that chicken wing!


Animated as always

"Baby" Jacob all curled up with KK

Look at those thighs!

Sister Bernadine was well represented...

....On to Saturday, where we attended an Octoberfest type fair at Our Lady of the Lake Catholic Church, before heading to the pumpkin patch.

Sadly, this is the first picture I've taken of Su and the boys together!


Jacob has a pretty good arm, hopefully better than his father's rag arm.

Two of Jacob's favorites...trains and balloons

Picking out his own pumpkin

You talkin' to me?!?!?!

If you think he was looking mischievous here, you'd be correct.

No, we did not buy this pumpkin!

--all the pix are so good.I know Sister Bernadine had to love seeing those precious boys. The pic of Nana and Patrick on her shoulder is frame worthy!
Love and more love,
