Laura, we missed H but -t's father was there and he was incredibly wonderful to all of us intruders. I should've gotten a picture of him also.

Kitty and kitten pics will be posted later tonight. I have some great pics of most of the Grabien Feline Clan. A few special shots of Rupert for Jilli. Gad hasn't been camera cooperative as of yet.

A few special shots of Rupert for Jilli.

Yay! That will make my so-far-unfun day better.

-t's Dad is OF THE COOL and has the best mustache too. Remember how much we liked Jin's dad? (Alla youse girls who knew that River’s teacher is also Walt's mom will get that one, hee). Plus Walter the (kind of dog I can’t remember) is skinny and fringey and freckled, all cheerfulness and energy and that special total dedicated canine devotion. He didn't really trust us when we came stomping in en masse, but after we’d watched him patrolling the yard and chasing the cats under the deck and petted his ears and had tea, he felt much better about us.

The floors were shiny. The music was fun, especially when Princess Em got to make a big noise banging on the guitar strings for awhile. She had lots of fun with all the Buffista Aunties, who never let her feet touch the floor and decided she’s probably destined for a career in infamy and fashion when she becomes MM’s evil lil hench baby.

Maidengurl: eternal gratitude for the ride home! Smooches.

Off for one more dinner at Pasta Pomodoro with our visitors. Beverly, Nicole, SailAweigh – it has been so great to have you here for the weekend. Next time let's go to the aquarium. I can hardly believe my décor is now available on the Internet.

Well, I had my last hugs with Bev, Nicole, and Sail...plus "just cause" hugs from Katie and Lee. They head out at o'dark thirty tomorrow morning.

I had so much fun this weekend, it was fantastic having a last bit of a visit. Nicole - K-bug says "poke".

A bunch of pics from today. Mostly of Deb's kitties, I admit. Hec, you might want to pass this time. Jilli, however, will want to click here asap if she wants to see handsome Rupert.

Spent a good part of the day at Deb's and then took a trip to Maidengurl's to check out her home and corrupt her children. Turns out we were too late on the latter.

Only two pics from dinner with the whole group (at the end) but I believe Sail took a few more and should be along shortly.

KITTIES!

That's Mallory and Rupert on the balance beam. Beautimous felines! And pretty ladies, as well.

A few more pictures from today. Kitties and kitteny behavior on all sides.

*poke*.

I'm lookin' at you, K-Bug.

Ahhh, there is photographic evidence of my "other kids" in addition to K-Bug, aka BRAT.

The kittens are adorable.

My fingers have little sore places from Farrowen nursing. But yes, adorable. I'm off to airport shortly.
