Family And A Conference

The Morton Family recently went to our denomination's international conference for a day, and stayed at our Grandparent's home.

Eating some delicious pizza

Getting caught off guard with the camera while cleaning up:)

Having a laugh during our visiting

We loved hearing Grandpa's stories!

Time to play a round or two of Pool

Kate's turn

Talented Daddy hitting a ball from that position!

Kate playing the piano with Grandpa on the harmonica, lots of fun!

Now, at the conference. This is just some of the attendants. With over 1600 people there, it was rather difficult to get a shot of everyone! Unfortunately, we only got a few pictures of the conference. I am afraid our name will forever be ruined by our lack of pictures, and we shall receive mocking comments like "there goes the Morton Maidens who never take any pictures" ! Oh, the shame of it! But please, do not hold it against us for long, we shall try to restore our camera-taking reputation. Any volunteers?

Daddy, Mumzie and Isaac at the Psalm sing. The Psalm sing was absolutely beautiful. Not only was the singing gorgeous, but the fact that God's word was being sung made it all the sweeter!

Back to Grandpa and Grandma's...

Ever-happy Grandpa

There is a time for everything, one of which saying "Goodbye". But, (as my brother reminds me), separation is earthly. We look forward to seeing them again!

P.S. For those wondering, their roof was getting re-done, hence the men on the roof!

Well folks, we finally are getting around to posting pictures from our trip to visit my Nephew! Some of you have already seen most of these, but others of you have not. In any case, enjoy!
