Warning- No Knitting Pics WhatsoeverI'm in the process of wading through almost 100 pics from the weekend, so bear with me if I make absolutely no sense. :) May I present my cousin Austin, at age 5 and 1/2 weeks:
I sense several more drives to North Carolina in my future. What a sweetie! I guess these are sort of knitting related- I gave my cousin Austin (and his mums) Menagerie: 
And it was quickly put into use by Great-Grandma and Austin: 
And here we all are, looking fat and happy. I'm one of those people who are blessed with family I really really love- I don't see them nearly as much as I would like, but I'm seeing them more and more as time goes on. Sure, my cousin-in-law is a bullfighter, but we'll forgive him... just like the rest of the family, he's "good people"- in every sense. And now he's a wonderful father to an absolutely adorable little boy. :) 
On the way to North Carolina, I got to spend a nice couple of hours stuck in DC traffic. Once the traffic started moving again, I didn't want to stop until we'd gone a good distance- so by the time 7:00 hit, I was ready for a bathroom and food break (in that order!) I kept holding out for something besides fast food, but we were in a pretty remote section of Virginia, and it wasn't looking good. Finally, I saw a sign for a Subway, and decided that was the best I could hope for, so we pulled off- exit 3A from 295 if you're in the area! On the way to the Subway (bear in mind that Prince George, Virginia has about 5 commercial buildings), we passed: 
My quote was, "Oh my god! Dancing pigs! We're stopping." Of course, the 2 story smoker out front didn't hurt either... and boy, was that bbq really good. So good, in fact, that we stopped there on the way home too... modestia "sense of discipline" 0 comments || # |
