They're Here!

 While waiting for Marsel and kids, I set the shawl to soak and prepared the old comforter for blocking.  I had lots of help.
 I pinned the shawl out and let it dry in the sunshine.
 It didn't take long for the shawl to dry!  Yup, I got my hair cut-sure does feel liberating!
Detail of the shawl, pattern from the mystery Thuree KAL on MMario, a yahoo group (check it out on Ravelry) 
 Finally, the grandchildren mobile pulled in the driveway!
And its precious cargo came pouring out!
The Grandma tanks are going to get filled up!

    Yes, I see you had help with the comforter. :) And, WOW! No wonder you lost a pound getting your hair cut.

    Ahh, yes, speeding youngsters straight into grandparent's loving arms. Precious!
