A Quick Post from Vermont: In less than 24 hours....

...my Mom and Dad will officially be home from their mission!!!!  We will be meeting them at Grampa Smith's house tomorrow around 2 o'clock when they drive in from their 4 day trip across the country from Seattle. :)

  We are in Vermont and the drive up flew by uneventfully (thank goodness!).  Thanks in part to The Chronicles of Narnia dramatized on CD, Jake's portable DVD player and a Kindle with the funny voice reading me the rest of Wuthering Heights (which by the way is not my favorite book...at all...Way too depressing!!!).  This is one of those journal posts. I have to document the moment. :)  Jake is soooo excited and I am too.  Can't wait to see you Nee and Papa G!  We miss you Aaron/Daddy-can't wait to see you in a couple of weeks!!!!

We are going into Camp tomorrow (where we will officially be computer/phone free) and can't wait to dip our toes (and everything else) in Groton Lake.  So, far this week we have: Swam at Peacham Pond and Camp Garrett (were Sadie learned to swim and killed a frog...); went to the Ben & Jerry's factory, took the tour, meet Jerry (as in the Jerry of Ben & Jerry's), ate yummy cider doughnuts we got at the Cidar Mill, hiked, spent time with cousins, built a fort in the woods at Aunt Sue and Uncle Ron's house...and basically had a blast!!! Gotta get back to the fun!!!  Hope you all are having a great summer.
