foster in maine

a few weekends ago we headed up to maine for niece maya's bday. it was almost 90-degrees back home in MA so it was lovely as always to visit the great ( & much cooler) state of maine.
i snapped a bunch of pics of foster loving up all sorts of family at m&d's condo and accidentally deleted them before uploading-boooooooooooooooo meg! bad blogger! luckily SIL laura snapped a few pics & sent them along so i have a few foster pics to share....and one of the birthday girl herself before we all enjoyed the sweet taste of fresh maine berries!
another fun weekend in june!

deuling grumps

you may remember when we met the original grumpasaurus down in D.C. back in april. clearly i was enamored & i mentioned to my crazy-knitting sister how much i liked him. because she's an awesome sis i got my very own grumpasaurus not too long after!as you can see grumps are pretty fun & cool so when my SIL laura saw mine she also wanted one. kt to the rescue again! she handed him off to me last week & the 2 grumps hung out at my house until grump #2 was delivered to his new (and VERY happy) owner this weekend!for info on how to make your own grump click here.
thanks again sis!

coming soon......

.....this december to a blog near you.....foster will have some company!

mem day weekend

i know i know, i said i would take all sorts of pictures of foster's holiday weekend activities. well, i only managed to snap about 5 pics.
saturday we had the fab four over for a lil holiday BBQ. we spent some time on the newly cleaned & furnished porch b/c of some late afternoon rain. but then it cleared up & we moved back outside for BBQ, bonfire & bocce. everything mem day should be!
e & a brought their pup angie along. angie is not too big a fan of brown bears so they didn't interact too much but i snapped a few pics of them individually...sunday we went to the sox game and monday dave went fishing while i entertained some visitors! see the last post for more pics of that fun day!
sorry guys, that's it!
