What's been keeping us busy ...


winemaking
Originally uploaded by aimeeblanchette
Lots and lots of wine! We started making the wine several weeks ago and should be able to try it in a few more weeks. By the time it reaches our guests, it will have aged for about five months! We're making three different kinds, so we hope that most people will find something they like. And Harvey, Tyler's Dad, has been brewing up some tasty beer, too!

    We hope you all enjoyed the postcards that arrived in your mailboxes this week. We sure had fun making them! It's not too often that I'm willing to put my face on a hug ox and have it be blue at the same time! By the way, the postcards were designed by the ever-so-talented Megan Blanchette who is headed to art school in the fall!
