This weekend I took a day off and headed to Riverside for Perk's baby shower. It has been almost a year since I have graced everyone there with my presence. The drive back reminded me why! Lauren did really well in the new car. She was actually more calm than when we travelled in the Jeep because she would pace around when I was driving. She laid down the entire time and only asked to go to the bathroom once.
Dan had made some improvments to the ol' casa. He turned my room from a wt. room back to my bedroom. Now it is nicer than when I lived there, complete with antiques. I think he is trying to lure me back for more visits.
Wash basin and yes and a chamber pot from the 1800's
There are a ton more pictures on my flickr page here:

This is also funny, the dogs waiting for my dad to turn in. And yes all but one (Lauren) pile in every night. (from the top clockwise: Lauren, Wyatt, Bert and Phil)
Woman and I hit up the Market Broiler and the "New and Improved" Plaza
Here is Perk and Cole (pending) 6 more weeks
Here is me at the shower, oh yea Im on the right, Carley refused to leave my lap the entire time she opened gifts even though I was the one who had to write down what she got while Tara handed her the gifts and took trash. It took some maneuvering, but I got through it. There are lots more pics in the Flickr set.
Here is the quilt I made for Cole. Im still working on the binding, I will take a pic to post when its done. I held up my tradition of giving the gift, but taking it back to finish later. It will be done soon, I swear!
And I totally had to go here!...........Yum
