A little about us...we've been married since 1983 and are Quakers (Friends). We currently live in the lovely town of Amherst, MA, near a beautiful brook and conservation area.  Our family has grown a lot lately....we now have quite a full house!  This includes our 2 sons, our incredibly sweet baby granddaughter and her mommy, as well.  And, of course, what would life be without the beasts: Oliver and Seamus are our 2 cats, and Niko and Pup-pup, our 2 unruly dogs!  



Life is full and busy...but we are so grateful to the many wonderful friends who have helped us along the way!  Please take a look around our website and let us know how we can help you. And remember...keep on singing!

~ Annie & Peter
