I don’t know why I never posted these pictures. It’s been kind of a busy week, I guess.

Last Sunday we celebrated Mother’s Day with a delicious dinner of potatoes, pasta salad, and about 40lbs of Robin’s amazing ribs, which had been lovingly prepared with a dry rub, baked in the oven, then grilled with Bone Suckin’ Sauce. Everything was perfect.

We ate outside because the weather was so amazingly nice.

Mom had some quality time with Cary, whose poor little belly was shaved for an ultrasound recently.

Mom is almost done with the handspun afghan. I’ll try to get a more full-on picture once the border is finished. It looks awesome.

Among other things, I gave Mom a skein of 70% Alpaca/30% Cormo fingering weight handspun I recently finished. This stuff is so amazingly soft and drapey, it was hard to give it up, but I made the sacrifice. I wanted to give her some handpun yarn that wasn’t a worsted 2-ply wool for the afghan. It should make a lovely cowl or scarf.
