Got up the next morning and it was rainy and humid and I knew if I took them down before work, my curls would be GONE by that night. So I left my curlers in and went to work LOL MY TIKI BIRD DRESS ...

Halloween weekend!!

IT'S HALLOWEEN YALL! We had a really fun weekend. Friday night started with cooking dinner and settling in on the couch to start watching Stranger Things 2. We got through 2 episodes that night. Saturday morning we slept in a bit, and then I started getting ready. (How to tell a photoshoot is happening at my house) We had very pleasant weather last week (70s mostly) and then overnight Friday it got ...

Speaking of construction info, Amanda over at my FB asked about my ...

Edith Photoshoot

I'm really very happy with how the photos turned out! My aunt had one huge candle holder that would have been great... if it didn't weigh like 20 lbs! I couldn't it up. But the ones I could pick up looked nice too. This next picture is not my favourite - the flash didn't go off correctly - but it's the best pic for showing my makeup and some of the ...

Disney Trip w/Kevin – Part 2, plus Megacon!

Saturday morning I was up and getting in costume, while Chase got Kevin into his Luke costume. Thankfully, Edith was easy to get into. Like I (think I) mentioned the other day, I decided to forego the wound prosthetics, which made getting ready much faster. We got to the convention center early, and..... parked in the wrong parking lot. We parked at the wrong concourse, but by the time we ...
