Retrospective - We have had a full 5 years here in Thetford, VT,  arriving to a porch light on, on June 17, 2012. Things sure do change in a life lived together.

Since Feb. of 2016 the following has happened: a trip to Boston right after a colossal snowstorm, spring break in DC and Sunset Beach, wedding anniversary-17th, William went to Costa Rica with Rustic Pathways for two weeks, William turned 15, Bill, James, Thomas and I spent two really fun days in NYC, family and friends visited us in VT, we picked lots of blueberries, Papa turned 80 and we all went to Atlanta to celebrate, James turned 13, Bill and I celebrated birthdays, we celebrated our first Christmas in Vt and Grandmama and Papa Lemmon came up to be with us,  Thomas turned 10, we survived mud season, spring break in DC, Annapolis to see some wonderful family friends and Sunset, time at Sunset Beach and Atlanta with my parents, wedding anniversary-18th, hot air ball...
