Me & My GirlOriginally uploaded by nutmegknitterHappy Mother's Day!!

I've got upwards of 50 family and friends coming over this weekend for Lorelai's baptism. Not a big problem, but a lot of prep work.

Let's start with the funny side, yes? [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUhyl5sw9Qw&hl=en]Jackson could easily pass for several dogs in that video. On the heavier side, I caught him going after my yarn. Of course it was after the fact. I come into the room and spot the yarn, find the dog and grab the camera. That yarn (nice… Continue reading Dogs on Thursday
