Good friends are hard to find, harder to leave, and impossible to forget.

A Long Weekend with Family and Friends

We took a long weekend last week, visiting family in PA and dear friends in VA, where we attended the 25th Annual Fab 5 Pig Roast. Loads of fun.

Mom's birthday socks fit perfectly.....

We visited, celebrated birthdays and ate and ate.....

The pig was cooked to perfection....

It's always great to see Lindy....

Work on the scrawl is progressing...

It was a great time.

Rainy Saturday

Finally getting around to posting again. Where is this year going? Finished the Monkey Socks in Trekking XXL for my mom for her birthday. She brought me the yarn from Germany in March. I wasn't wild about the color, but she told me it was her favorite. So, it was meant to be socks for her. The color worked out great with the pattern. I'm very pleased with how they turned out. I hope she will like them. The foot looks small - but she wears a size 5 shoe.

We got together with our Soulard family to celebrate Labor Day last Sunday. What a great way to celebrate getting another year older. Photo album is linked on the right -->

Off to celebrate Mona's birthday.....
