Hey - we went to CT S&W this past weekend and look what we found! Sun! For reals. I got almost no pictures, despite hauling the big camera around, because it turns out that even with Dad around to help, it's almost impossible to focus on photos while chasing a toddler who is intent on throwing himself under the hooves of the oxen pulling the hayride, or trying to vault the retaining fence so that he can go "run with the doggies, woof, woof, woof", or any other brand of toddler hilarity.
We did get to see people that I haven't seen in ages, which is the thing I love best about these gatherings. It has always been about the people (oh, OK and a LITTLE bit about the stuff, sheesh), but it's become even more vital to me now that I (and often they) have less time for the other social outlets we used to share. I miss everyone, often a lot, and it's always so great to catch up however briefly.
Hooray for festival season!
He luuuuuurrrrrves his apples, this guy does. He began stealing them off the counter and noshing them whole a couple of weeks ago and is nigh unstoppable.
......but he still won't eat the peels on an apple that's been cut up for him. WTF is that?
Sheep & Wool festivals are fun, no?
Oh, and speaking of stuff....guess who came home from a festival with NOT A SINGLE PURCHASE? Oh sorry, perhaps I should have told you to sit down first?
Now you know why I kept mine pretty well confined to the stroller :)
He's really adorable. Don't try to make sense of the illogic of a toddler. It will make you crazy.

Great pics! I only came home with one skein of yarn and some soap -- no fiber!!

He's a stitch and a half. It was wonderful to see you. Fiber truly was secondary that day. I bought some...little...well chosen...sparse.
