My first out-of-town excursion since moving to CA just two months ago. Thus, I also experienced my first coming "home" to the new Boston Manor... returning today, with The Maven picking me up from the airport, driving home through the mountains from her place with highway traffic (hey, it's LA!), running to the grocery store on the way home, and getting an enthusiastic greeting from the Bostons and Bumby, well, I really did feel like I was coming home.
But I digress.
One picture is all you get this post because I have to absorb it all and think about it.
Okay, two pictures because there are two babies.
Boston Lady and her grand-nephew, the big brother, Sebastian.
He was a much better crawler than I am and just on the cusp of walking - one finger tip away!
Adorable little boys who took me back in time to when my kids were that little and cuddly.
Two and half-week old Theodore. Happy, healthy baby.
A long weekend well spent and hopefully I gave mom and dad some time to refresh and prepare for....
a move!
Yes, they are moving across town and that was one of the reasons I was there.
Ah, to be young, and handle so many things at once with such composure.
Don't think I ever had that...
AND, they are cat people! More about that later too. (ok, three pictures...)
Veer, loyal house cat and not one bit phased by two little ones.
Another post will follow soon with lots of baby shots and some pretty scenery from the area of Reno where I stayed with my niece and her husband (and of course, THEM!)
P.S. All those good bloggy thoughts and grandma prayers worked! The Maven has landed a job in LA! So happy for her and proud. Life's going to get interesting for her now...
Prayers and positive thoughts for those dealing with Hurricane Sandy and her aftermath.

Ann, Good news to hear you are safely home, and such sweet babies. I'll bet you had an amazing visit.
Their small orange tabby looks remarkably like my Herbert, minus about 11 lbs.
Congratulations to the Maven!! :)
