A Shout-out to the Ambrefe's!

A great big hello to our friends from Boxford, Massachusettes! Brian, Mary, Lyndon, and Avery Ambrefe!

For the sake of nostalgia, here are a few pictures that I could find from our days up in Topsfield, when we were able to see the Ambrefe's on a regular basis. This picture is from Holy Week 2004 (I think). Note how small the children were then! 

Here is the rectory backyard, about the time when we held the 100 Inch Snow Party for the parish! Once we had received 100 inches of snow for the season (by my careful calculations), the Ambrefe's joined others for an afternoon filled with Sugar-on-Snow  treats, ice skating, sledding down our huge snow-plow pile, snowshoeing in the woods, playing in the snow fort, etc. This was in early March 2005, and it was a great day.
