Mom and Dad flew back to Canada today and we will miss them terribly - especially Willow. It hasn't started yet, but I suspect the waterworks are going to open up right before bedtime. We had a wonderful time while they were here - for the most part the weather cooperated, and Mom and Dad did a lot of independent exploring while Andrew and I were at work.
Last weekend we drove down to Rehoboth Beach so Mom and Dad could see the Atlantic Ocean:
Dad can now say he has been on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean (England and Delaware) and Pacific Ocean (Vancouver Island and Japan). The weather was pretty nice - it was cloudy and windy, but about 78'F. Check out this sky:
Luckily, the heavy rain managed to hold off until we were on our way home. There was a greyhound adoption conference going on while we were down there, and there were gazillions of greyhounds about. Rehoboth is normally a very dog-friendly place, but there were so many greyhounds around that it became odd to see a terrier or pug walk down the street!
Willow lost another tooth - the day after her first one came out:
(and another one came out this afternoon - the Tooth Fairy is going to have to take out a loan if this keeps up at this pace!)
I even managed to finish some stuff while they were here - the Cucumber Socks:
I loooove these socks, and they fit me perfectly. I will be washing these socks this week and bringing them with me to Stitches next weekend. I have almost finished my hoodie vest for the trip as well - all that I have left is the button band and we are good to go. Pictures soon!
