At Home with the Sutherlands

Having a big family means plenty of piano music and books to share, conversations over cups of tea, and time outdoors with the little ones. The weather continues to be sunny and warm at this half-timbered German house in a quiet village. George is an excellent shot with his new bow and arrows. Our afternoon was spent with giggly girls who wanted to play the
"Pride and Prejudice" board game with us. And we all took a walk down to the River Aggar to try our hand at skipping stones. Still no rain, though a few clouds caused us to take along our new umbrella. Supper was followed by another dose of wonderful breads and cheeses. Ahh... it's good to be with all nine of the Sutherlands again.
