Bye, Grandma. See you soon!

This past Tuesday, my grandmother passed away.  She was 98 years old.  We will miss her, but she had been having a very rough last few months.  It had been very hard to watch and hear of her slowly succumbing to old age, but still hanging on.  However, with confidence in her salvation, she went home this past Tuesday to be with the Lord.

Oddly, I had a dream about her and Grandpa the day before.  In the dream, both were happy and were glad to see each other again.  In the dream, they were back in their old mobile home, the irises were blooming, and my family was there greeting Grandpa as though he'd been gone on a long trip, but was safely back and very glad to see Grandma again.  

Knowing that heaven is a fact is such an assurance.  Grandma (and Grandpa as well) is without a doubt happy, whole, and rejoicing at having a new body that is free from the ailments she experienced here.  Truly, death has been swallowed up in life!

Yoga-meisteress

So, here's what happens on crazy Sunday nights at the Hausmeister household when Mrs. H leaves out books of yoga poses, and Baby H is feeling spunky . . .

Just for the record, Baby H picked the shirt out for me.

Last game of the season

So, this week concluded this year's soccer season.  I was a little shocked that I haven't posted anything since the beginning of the season over a month ago, but in my defense, there have also been two trips to the Midwest in there, and we're currently hanging out with my parents for a week.

Today, we all went to see Baby H's last soccer game.  Well, all of us, plus the pet t-rex, who sat on the sidelines to keep an eye on things.  It also shared some of the halftime snack, and was petted through most of the second half.  Games for Baby H really only consisted of the first half anyway this season.  Once the snacks came out at halftime, it was time to socialize.  Today, the halftime snack was donuts. Baby H wasn't happy to find out that her donut had several bites missing (by several members of the family) by the time she got back from a run out on the field.

As before, enjoy the photos!
