It was a hectic move from Richmond to Massachusetts with a new baby and all, but thank god for David, Tully, and Bob who flew from Buffalo to help Damien load our entire apartment into a Penske truck and drive it and one of our cars to Mass. I was entirely useless and they took good care of me, and I thank those guys with all of my heart, muscles, and sanity. So here we are staying with my folks during this transition period of our lives in Agawam, and the new grandparents are certainly enjoying the little sweet pea while we are grateful to have a wonderful place to stay as we get situated. A week after we got here we drove up to Canada where a three-week old Juliet got to meet the Johnson side of her family for the annual family reunion on Wolfe (aka Mud) island. We had a beautiful few days with the Johnsons, Lisowskis, Skorges, and Wus. I did a lot of relaxing, eating, and mothering while everyone else was fishing, sailing, swimming, kayaking, cooking, biking, and adoring the baby all around me. It was a great time.
The Mud Island crew this year. What a bunch!
The boat builders: Norm, Ozzie, & David
Who you'll find in my arms.
Juliet meets her great grandmother.
Our blissful little triad.
Happy baby.
4 weeks old and all clean.
5 weeks old and thinking about things in the world.
Damien found class 3 whitewater here in MA...this is him paddling Zoar Gap on the Deerfield River! He starts his new job in a week as a freshman English teacher at West Springfield High School...

Are you sure you are the momma? Juliet kind of favors Bjork! She's just too cute - I mean really adorable. That smile melts the heart!
those rapids rival the James' and I see that Damien is kicking ass! Thanks for the pics and the updates.

By the way, that rock to the right of Damien looks like a giant dinosaur head or turtle head. LOOK OUT, DAMIEN!
I like that Juliet lady more and more each day. I think she is almost as good looking as her uncle monkey.
Good luck with the new development!
Love

Congratulations on your beautiful baby girl. I enjoyed reading your entries and looking at the beautiful photos. Aunt Tina told me about it. Hope you remember me.
