BOOK SALE!!!


The Radnor Memorial Library had its annual book sale this weekend. Mom and Dad were careful not to buy to much as they are trying to get rid of most of our overabundant library. The price on the books has gone up a whole quarter, in some cases 2 quarters!!! They're ripping us off. Anyway, Lizzie expanded her own collection with 8 classics and it set her back a total of $3.50. It's getting pretty expensive these days.

The Father and Son's Camp Out



As is tradition, our ward had a Fathers and Sons Camp Out. Dad and the two boys packed up all of their camping gear Friday and headed over the church's property near the Freedom Foundation. Only a few faithful tradition upholders were in attendance. But to spite lacking numbers, the boys had a great time. Sadly there are no pictures of the Father because he was taking the pictures.
Back at home the women had a girl party to celebrate the guy’s absence. It wasn't really a true girl party because Mimi joined us with Doug. But he was welcome company. We had lots of fun getting Wawa hoagies, baking cookies, and watching Freaky Friday and Mostly Martha (a fabulous German movie) while enjoying homemade slushies.
Even though we enjoyed our evening, we were all really happy to have Daddy, Abe and John come back home the following morning. Now we're a whole family again. Well... that is if you don't include the 7 other children not at home. :(

Old News


The aunts gave us visit! Yeah, it happened a week ago, but it was still awesome.

Mommy, Aunt Joanna, and Aunt Linda all went to Boston for a family wedding while Pops held down the fort with a little help from Lizzie. We also got an little addition to our family for the weekend. Kevin, Aunt Joanna's 9 year son, joined our ranks for a couple of days. He entertained us quite a bit with his sage advice and unquestionable wisdom.

The ladies had a fabulous weekend with their family. We were so glad they got the opportunity spend time together!!
