>Last Sunday our music team did an AWESOME job of playing this song… extra cool because I had been listening to it all week in the car…it sounded pretty much exactly like this:
One of my favorites!

This morning around 6:30, my grandma, Betty Horton, went to Heaven! She had been getting weaker and weaker and now we are rejoicing that she is free of suffering and with Jesus AND Grandpa. My grandpa died in 1996. Here are a few pictures I found of her. She always made the best oatmeal chocolate chip recipes and worked hard her entire life. She gave birth to 9 children, of whom my mom is the oldest, and said she doesn’t remember any of them being hard. She lived through the depression and never let anything go to waste. She always remembered our birthdays and sent us birthday cards ON TIME and then all of her great-grandchildren as well. I loved my grandma and am thankful for the heritage that we have!
Four generations!

We left the Mud Run an drove down to NJ to spend the night with the Weldons at the shore house. We stopped at McDonalds for their bathrooms and dollar cones!

So on Sunday Matt and his brothers (Matt is in the middle of the pit, completely submerged, Will has the orange doo-rag, and Jacob is behind Matt) made Weldon history by participating in the Phiadelphia Merrell Down & Dirty Mud Run! It was a 5k complete with four obstacles, the last being the mud pit. They did a good job, and we got a little dirty ourselves, just watching! I still don’t have a camera, so these are compliments of Jimbo (a friend whose wife and daughter did it as well and we just happened to run into them!) and my camera phone.

I love Nadine’s daily pictures and notes that find their way to my desk…

Last Thursday we surprised our kids and the Soderberg cousins by going to a Phillies game! We rode the train into the city, ate at Reading Terminal Market, and enjoyed the breezy seats all the way at the top! =) We were blessed to be at the game that went into extra innings, and the Phils finally won at the bottom of the 12th. After the game, we enjoyed an awesome display of fireworks! Needless to say, we were SO tired when we finally arrived home at 2am!

Last week, Elsie fell 3 feet from a backyard onto the paved driveway below and landed on her face. Thankfully, her only injury was a faceplant complete with bloody nose. She cried for about 30 minutes, then Aunt Heather gave her a piece of gum and Grandma gave her a smoothie and sher perked up considerably. Nadine’s sunglasses are hiding most of her injuries and since my camera is broken I only have the camera phone here to document.

Well, tomorrow is the big day! Nadine & Elijah will begin their first day at a real Elementary school! I was so excited to find these adorable, but not too cutesy, lunch bags on clearance at Target! They zipper closed, AND you can toss them in the washing machine! Love! They expand and then fold flat. I might just have to go back and buy a couple more. =) They hold a LOT which is good, because my kids’ tummies hold a lot!

Our friend, Josh, brought his wood-splitter and helped us out with our big pile of wood! Nadine and Elijah enjoyed helping, while Elsie enjoyed watching from the window! Jack took a nap.
