    More Hogwarts Robes pics

    Well, the only reason I had to keep this project secret on here was because Ash reads this journal, so she would have seen it all! Earlier this year, the girls all decided they wanted Hogwarts robes for Dragoncon next year. The plan was that I would make them next year. Well then I thought, why not make them for…

    merry christmas 2007!

    We came back from Mema’s last night, it was the usual fun & madness. Got lots of stuff, and Chase and I got a huge framed Return of the Jedi poster and decided it would be from both of us to both of us LOL Some pics. I realised after taking this first picture that my mother set it out…

    Hogwarts Robes finished + photoshoot!

    Secret project is FINISHED! I’ll try to post pics tomorrow before we leave. I took these pics a while back, when I bought a new backdrop – I want to try to put together a nice book of some of my costumes, eventually. (Sort-of, to use a portfolio – I’ve got a nice setup for my artwork, but nothing for…

    wow

    Ok, saturday was seriously the weirdest, craziest, most insane day in my life, EVER. To preface all of this, the past several weeks at work, including this last one, have been insanely busy, as in I’ve been staying an hour late (sometimes more) and getting home completely exhausted. Some nights we don’t even get to go home, because we’ve been…

    2007 in review

    Well since I’m mostly done for the year – outside of my little secret project – I’m gonna go ahead and post this. I’ve had it done for a while actually LOL At the beginning of the year, this is what I wanted to accomplish… keeping in mind that when I wrote this, Chase hadn’t proposed yet and changed a…

    Christmas Parade Pics

    Well first and foremost, I am cruising on my secret project. And having fun, it’s ended up being pretty simple. I hope to have it done by this weekend, and to do a photoshoot then. Here’s some more parade pics! All of these photos were taken by Dragon. And THIS was when we managed to get way, way behind the…

    WHAT

    We got a shipment at work today… which did not belong to us. It was a shipment of about 20 boxes of pantyliners, and one pregnancy test. We had Kevin take up front to our one other male employee and tell him his shipment was here.

    501st Christmas Parades!

    Friday night, we managed to cram 4 people and 4 costumes into the car and hit the road to Jackson, where my grandparents live. Chase was going to go see a band with my cousin that night there in Jackson, so Ash, Kevin and I curled up in the living room and watched movies. We went to bed pretty early,…

    Link costume

    I got Kevin’s Link tunic made – everything but the bottom hem and putting a closure at the chest so it doesn’t slip – I tried it on him yesterday and got those places marked, so I’ll get it finished tonight. I’ll also work on his boots tonight, and start on that secret project while PR is on 8) Question…

    Princess Birthday Party Pics!

    It was a really fun time. The birthday girl had a great time, the carriage was beautiful, the weather was perfect. One little girl in a Cinderella dress was STUCK to my side the entire time, once she got over her shy-ness – holding my hand everywhere, running over picking flowers for me, and she also rode in my lap…

    The plan

    We’ve just barely started house-hunting, but starting this week I’m going to start packing. Mostly just because we’re out of ROOM. I mean, we’re exploding at the seams. I’ve got a bunch of boxes – I’m going to start packing up the stuff in my closet. Most of that stuff is just random junk I don’t want to put in…

    March of Dimes event pics!

    Well first off – the hotel messed up the rooms, and the March of Dimes people came over and straightened out as best they could – we ended up with a big suite for all of us. It was pretty nice! I wish the Marriott had something like that for Dragoncon that wasn’t like, you know, $5000 a night or…

    blah – halloween 2007

    So yeah, we ended up doing basically nothing for Halloween, yet again. We wanted to go try to find somewhere with a costume contest and try to win some money towards the wedding, but we were too lazy Saturday night, like I said, and we didn’t do anything last night, either. In fact, I didn’t even wear blue Belle to…

    Halloween 2007 Pics

    These are all from saturday 😀 First we headed over to the Grotto to takes pics of Wonder Woman. As I said before, since I was already going to be wearing it that day, and Saturday was what I thought was probably going to be our last warm day (it’s not, all this week is going to be warm, yay!)…

    ZooBoo Pics

    Memphis ZooBoo was LAME compared to the Nashville zoo. We basically just wandered around, got free ice cream sandwiches. Chase got some attention, a handful of photos with kids, but I might as well have been wearing normal clothes (I was in Leia, since it turned out too cold and drizzly last night for WW or Belle) We had fun…

    Superhero thoughts

    I asked Chase which should be my next superhero costume – I gave him a choice of 4 – Zatanna, comic-book Starfire (which I’ve wanted to do since doing the Cartoon Network version), Power Girl or Scarlet Witch. He didn’t like Power Girl, which I didn’t expect him to, he wasn’t too keen on Zatanna, either – he said Starfire…

    Sunday Parthenon Shoot

    We got up Sunday morning, got packed up and set off to the Parthenon. We had quite a good turn out! Besides me and Chase, we also had Supergirl, Poison Ivy, Lara Croft, slave Leia and Boba Fett. So we had a great time taking pics. The weather was perfect, the wind was whipping (and a few times would suddenly…

    This week has been very hectic at work, I just finally finished editing the photos from this weekend and got them uploaded today. So we drove up to Nashville Friday night, had an awesome dinner with friends. 🙂 Saturday we got up, and I put on Belle, and Chase and I headed over to the fairgrounds for the Nashville Comic/Horror…
