WOW!! The Make-a-Wish event in Clarksville yesterday was awesome! The event was supposed to be from 1-3, we ended up staying until 4 because there were SO many people there, still waiting in line to get pictures with us! I couldn't believe how many people showed up -- we raised almost $1400! I didn't take many pictures, but here they are, in my 2007 Trooping folder. Here's one group pic I found: Chase ...
Well, I Istill/i haven't worked on anything lately. I did get my ceremonial Leia skirt pieces out and washed them, since it had gotten something on it while laying around in the sewing room (who knows what, probably paint or something. It came off). Mum agreed tonight to look at it with me and help me figure out where I am with it - I don't remember! I think ...
First off, my new toy came today! oh heck yes... New Leia pics we took a while back-- I want to do the Rebel Legion trading cards this time around, so I needed better pics of some of my costumes. Next up - padme lake dress -- stormtrooper -- imperial officer -- maybe the parade dress Although, speaking of that, when I was cleaning and organizing my costume closet the ...
Hope everyone had a great Halloween! Picture Gallery - including Pumpkinfest this past weekend, us at the zoo, and last night! I finished Dorothy and wore it to work Halloween day, and to hand out candy that night... And took some pics with Kes :) This past weekend we did Pumpkinfest in Franklin, and did the zoo troop again! Here's a group pic at Pumpkinfest, from Glenn: And I wore Belle ...
Friday we went and saw The Prestige. I left my phone at the restaurant and we had to go back for it. Geez. Saturday morning I woke up with a horrible headache and eyeache. I took some advil and it went away, but I was left with a lingering feeling of slight ickiness the rest of the day. I got into Hoth Leia - the hair took longer than I ...
This weekend is Horrorfest; I'm trying to get Hoth Leia finished for it. I worked a little bit last night, but the sewing machine was being horrid to me so I quit (I swear, the needle came unthreaded three times in the space of, like, 5 minutes. The last time I just quit. I had been up since 5:45 yesterday, so I wasn't in the best mood to begin with.) Tonight I ...
This was an awesome event we did on Saturday, for the Shelbyville Humane Society. Chase signed lots of autographs, including an autograph on a lightsaber The Sith Lords pose for their yearbook photo. stormtroopers! Chase as Vader and stormtroopers Me and Chase The emperor loves hamburgers ok i'm bored of typing so the rest are in my 2005/2006 Trooping Folder. this upcoming weekend is horrorfest... and the next is pumpkinfest. busy, ...
Last night was fun! Cold Stone Creamery's Ice Cream Social for Make a Wish. It was a little cold though - I'm going to have to start digging out stuff I can wear under Leia for the Christmas parades. At least I can layer underneath that dress! LOL One lady there with her kids told me they had just bought the Leia costume for her daughter - and that I ...
Since I did the Wonderfest post over at my other journal, I'll do the COSI one here! A strange crew on the falcon... Friday! Ash and I left Chase's apt and took a cab to the airport. The cab showed up 20 minutes earlier than it was supposed to, so we got to the airport waaaaaaay early. Flight was uneventful, and short. Columbus weather? Not so great. It was pouring and ...
(EDIT: This was a catch-all collection of recent costume photos and events originally posted to my livejournal. Since I ported it over here, it may be a bit redundant.) As I said in the last quick post, sorry for disappearing the past couple of months! Besides the usual weekday work drudge, I've been out of town almost every weekend since March, and add to that trying to finish various costumes ...
