My brother and niece went home Monday afternoon. It was a fun visit, but toddlers are noisy and exhausting.

#749 – Levity
As I write this, I’m sitting in an airport in Dallas, TX, making my return to northern Virginia and home. The past fee days have been spent mourning the loss of my great aunt, Gail Roork, with my family. One thing I’ve always noticed about funerals – at least, with my family – is that the great majority of time is spent not crying, but laughing. We celebrate the deceased’s life. And that’s what we’ve done in this case.
That being said, we are still sad, and seeing me catch a pie in the face would make just about anyone smile, I’m pretty sure.
Edited to correct horribly glaring spelling/grammar mistake in the second panel. Ugh.
Sketch a Day, Day 584
I apologize for the sudden radio silence. With my sister-in-law’s wedding and reception this weekend, we were suddenly invaded by a horde of Brancos. They all came over to my house Friday night for dinner, and then we had the actual reception Saturday night. At meant two very long, very exhausting days in a row where I just couldn’t get anything drawn, I should’ve able to get back on track now, though.
The reception went well, aside from various Brancos vying for control of the playlist. I ultimately won out, though not without effort.
