Vermont

Around the first of June, we were invited to a "Run for Jesus Retreat" in Vermont.  We spent a weekend and had a blast!!  The girls stayed with their friends' (Illiana & Merika) grandparents.  It was nice to spend some quiet time with Benny.  I think the last time we did that was in December at a Couples Retreat. 
There was a concert in the park, with my friend Sonya Hines singing.  That was fun, although Anna's asthema was kicking up a bit.  The next day I participated in a 5k run and placed 4th among the ladies.  That was a highlight for me because I had never done that before.  All in all it was a fabulous weekend.
Sheldon, Vermont, seems more 'country' than Syracuse, but the yard sales were out of this world.  I could have stayed shopping all day! (Which I did, come to think about it) even Benny got into the spirit of shopping and normally that's like pulling teeth.
We, eventually had to get Anna and Cleo,  because Anna's asthema persisted through out the weekend.   By that time though, we missed them and were ready to pick them up.
