Forty kids and ten adult friends gathered at The Kent House on Prospect Avenue for a three-hour Open House celebrating Alex & Peter's stay in America. Thanks to our friend & neighbor, Kate Clough, for serving as Official Party Photographer. Thanks to our friend Gayle for baking her face off in support of our sugar habits! Peter's friend Kathleen brought a chocolate brownie delight made by her mom that sent most of us into never-never land. And Aunt Connie whipped up a magical Chocolate dish that Peter and I finished off for lunch today.
The boys were showered with cards, kind words, and tears. Alex sang with his guitarist friend Paul while Peter held up in the sports room challenging friend after friend to matches of foosball.
Special thanks to Anne Wood (we missed you, Betty), Jerry Cohen (we missed you, Jennifer), Mrs. Judy Kuhn, Deb and Chris Carver & kids, Uncle Ben, and Pam & Fred Kent for finding their way up to the house after a busy work day to celebrate these two remarkable young men.
Alex and Peter, we're not saying farewell, we're saying "See you soon." You always have a home in Maine.
GOOMHN YLHD
(a message from Rich to the boys)
––Mette, Marie, Niels, & Michael, you're just going to have to figure this one out for yourselves! ;-)
