Rare Mid-Week Post

Sunday evening brought sad news.  Ben's grandmother passed away at 89.  She lived a very full life and was able to spend her final weeks at home with her husband of 70 years.  She passed very peacefully with many of her children in town visiting.  She will be missed.

To cheer everyone up, we have included random pictures of the dogs.

Monday was a hectic day at work for Kelly as Congress tried to get the debt deal through.  However, after debt limit vote, Congress started their month long recess. This means a nice break in the action at Kelly's office. It also means everyone can breath a sigh of relief that our nightly news can focus on something other than the debt ceiling and the impending economic meltdown for a while.

On Tuesday, we rented "The Adjustment Bureau" starring Matt Damon. It was a decent movie, including suspense, action, and a nice love story. Ben did some cooking and Kelly did some good internet surfing. 

(Bammm!)

As mentioned in the last post, the weekend was tough on Kelly's legs. She continues to run around like a 10 year old and refuses to accept the quality of her knees is subpar. Sliding a couple times and diving for unreachable balls has resulted in this:

No softball tournament this weekend, so we'll probably do something touristy and blog worthy.
