September 2011

September was a busy month. School started and Matthew and I made a trip down to S. Indiana to see G'ma and G'pa H.

Matthew had fun with his cars on the highway!

August 2011

At the beginning of August, G'ma and G'pa H. came up to visit. That was fun - and very helpful for me since Mark was in Virginia. I was very thankful for their visit!!

Shortly thereafter, Matthew and I made the trek to PA to see G'ma and G'pa E. Matthew stayed with them while I went down to VA to pick Mark up and then we headed to DC for more research. That was a treat for me since I had never been there before.

We did the usual PA stuff - Matthew was very brave this year and rode lots of rides at Knobels!!

It was wonderful having the three of us together again, too!!

July - at long last

We finally got our computer upgraded and I'm feeling confident enough to upload pictures - three months later - I've almost forgotten how to do it!

We had fun watching the hot air balloons fly over our house when G'ma and G'pa E were here. The day after these pictures were taken, Mark left with his parents for about four weeks of valuable research out East.

Matthew and I went down to the park after they left to watch the balloons take off in the morning - that eased some of the sadness of Daddy and G'parents leaving!
