I've basically got 2 weeks worth of stuff to post today. So hold onto your butts, it's going to be a long post! Let's separate this into topics. 1. Las Vegas So last week was Vegas for work. I didn't think I was going to have to do this show again but it got pulled together kinda at the last minute so there I was again. I was up at 5:30 Monday morning ...

Vegas & Beyond

I'm BACK!!! And so glad to be back. Here's a really long rambly post about my Vegas trip, weekend stuff... a whole lot of stuff NOT about costumes. Well, a little bit about costumes when you get to Sunday. First off look at my super happy Pumpkin man! And mom found these while cleaning out something and gave them to me. I guess I have Thanksgiving decorations now, LOL. So ...

what a drag it is getting old

Last week was Las Vegas for work. It was exhausting. I didn't take just a ton of pictures this year because it was all pretty much the same. Here's the view from my window: I ended up having Lobster Bisque at all 3 client dinner meetings we went to in the evenings. I ranked them all at the end. Dinner #2 was the best, I ranked it a 10. Dinner #1 was the 2nd ...

Oh hi blog

Sorry I haven't posted in a while! Been busy... my birthday and then Las Vegas! Let me go back through my phone photos and see what I've missed. I got some very important fabric and a very important pattern (no clue what I'm doing with any of this, I just got it all for the stash.) And then I had a great birthday! My parents & Chase got me a ...

Universal tickets bought - doing that tomorrow! Getting there: As I probably mentioned before, we're driving for the first time this trip. I haven't driven to Orlando since we went in 1990 - and obviously I ...

My Disney Book

I've kept myself busy this week creating a little guidebook for our Disney trip (26 days!). At Barnes and Noble last year I saw this adorable tiny Disney guidebook - it was small enough to carry in a pocket, and had neat fold out maps and everything. And I really wanted it. Not that I necessarily needed the information... but it was so cute and just seemed super handy. Problem was, ...

Diiiiiiiiiidny

So, a few thoughts.... 1. We booked our Fastpasses! Friday night (technically Saturday morning - Orlando time) I logged in and booked our fastpasses. There wasn't a TON we wanted to do, since Chase isn't big on rides and most everything else we've done a lot. We just missed the Mine Train when we went earlier this year, so that one was obviously one we wanted to snag. Got two for ...
