Good bye! We are leaving tomorrow morning for New Hampshire! Rich is taking his much need vacation with no blackberry. I am so excited. My brother Isaac has kindly agreed to take care of things here at home for us, while we are away. We’ll be back on Sunday.
I’ll check in later to read comments. I hope everyone is doing well! The pictures here are from a few weeks ago. I love Sarah in the tree, and the last picture makes me smile, it’s straight out of the camera…I wouldn’t have cropped it like that.

I agree with Mary…I am smiling. Your photos often do that…Sarah in a tree I would like to pluck her out and squeeze her! Have a wonderful wonderful trip!! I do hope you will take some photos…but most of all enjoy!
Happy travels—so glad for you. Have a wonderful time. Those are adorable pictures, all of them.
Awwwww……..that picture of Sarah in the tree is sooooooooooo precious! Hope you all are having a wonderful time away. A vacation with no blackberry, sounds like a dream. All the things to simplify life actually seem to take more time away from us. Praying you, Rich, and your beautiful family are being blessed greatly with great conversations, and just being together without distractions. Be blessed! ~Deborah
You have a gorgeous family and sound like very dedicated and loving parents!God Bless…
