And We're Back, but Not for Long

The parents left bright and early this morning, and I am almost back to my normal routine. Tomorrow, however, the dude and I leave for San Antonio. I'm going to a conference, and he's tagging along. I'm not sure if we're bringing the laptop or not, so things are going to continue to be sparse around here I fear.

Xsquared is right. This is the Lizzie*Kate Baby Sampler. And it's as done as it is going to be for a while. I ran out of whitewash, but I saw that coming and replaced it when I was off on Monday, showing my dad a microbrewery in West Chester. (After a delicious breakfast at Classic Diner. Mmmmm, bacon.) But I somehow neglected to notice that I had nearly no blue jay left. I knew it was going to be a race with the hunter, and as you can see, I lost.

I managed to complete the stitching on Alpine Garden, but not to finish it, since my mother had us out of the house from morning until bedtime every day. I'll show you how it looks once I've made it into a bell pull. Cheers!
