Warsaw!

We had a mini family reunion last weekend at Jill's mom and dad's place. Jill's brother and family and we converged on Warsaw, IN. Older nephew is very excited to have 2 girl cousins on the way. Our girl will be the second. Jill finished crocheting a bear for younger nephew-- he likes it. You can see the head and ears in his arms, and the whole thing is extremely cute.
With a tip of the hat to Great Adventures, Jill's new crochet project is a blanket for our baby. We're getting her literary training started early with an alphabet blanket. Also, the baby's name is hereby revealed to her adoring public: Clara J___ (middle name still under discussion, but the 'J' beginning has been decided).


A while ago, a stately Canadian goose kept watch over the environs from the roof of our neighborhood electricians' office. We like to think of our neighborhood as mixed and chic with just a touch of dilapidation.
