I sewed darts in some ill-fitting shirts and Max took this after picture. He was really amused because of the face I am making in it. It was like he'd never seen a picture of me before.

January 31st, Sunday

On our way back from the fabric store, Michelle and I met up with a herd (7? 8?) of Great Pyrenees puppies and their parents. It was more amazing than I can describe. One puppy rolled down a hill for FUN. I almost died. And failed to take any pictures because a puppy was gnawing on my hand with its milkteeth.

Fabric for a new bag

Monika visited and I failed to take any pictures of her pretty face. Instead I took a picture of this bizarro installation outside of the Lloyd Center. I think it was supposed to make us want to shop more but instead it freaked us out.

Olive is amazing because she's Olive

They did this for at least an hour every night I stayed with them:
