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 ...
Spent the last week going to play practice, having a migraine, and working on the nun. The robe isn't much to look at. Followed the pattern exactly for this -- I did make it a little bigger because I'd rather work down than have it be too small. This is a really thin black satin and I there are times it's almost leather-like, especially when interfaced, so I think that's ...
Hi everybody! I'm back from my four day weekend. Did I do everything on that to-do list? HA. Of course not. The point of a to-do list is to look back and see everything you DIDN'T do. But I'll get to all that. As usual, let's start at the beginning... Friday night I picked up Kevin and we ran to the fabric store. I got the new linen for TFA ...
1. Got my car fixed. I won't go into the whole story but it's been having this "burping" problem since right before Celebration. We drove to Orlando and back with the "burping" - realized we did need to get it looked at but put it off until it died on me in traffic last week. Took it in Tuesday. $345 later it's fixed and running nicely again. Thankful it wasn't a bigger ...
Spent the weekend in Jackson! Had a great time. Friday night we just picked up dinner and ate at my grandparent's which worked out great because I was able to watch RuPaul's Drag Race (I thought I'd have to wait til I got home Sunday). Played some battlefront with Chase, he hated it. But at least he played. Saturday we had breakfast at Cracker Barrel and then ran to Joann. ...
I mentioned this in yesterday's post, but that post was so long I didn't want to jam this in there too... besides I wanted to get some pics of them on to add to it, also. So, timeline - From 2004-2015 I used the same brunette extensions that matched my 2004 but hasn't matched since 2011 when I went lighter for Donna. I FINALLY updated to red extensions that matched in 2015. And ...
Sorry I haven't posted this week! It's been busy! This past weekend we did the symphony event -- which I'll talk about the next post -- and we'd originally planned to do this photoshoot before we left for the event Saturday night. But my tiara wasn't quite ready Saturday, and there was yardwork that needed to be done before the storms set in on Sunday. So we moved the photoshoot ...
Got Chase's pics from Saturday uploaded! Sometimes when I know I'm in the background of a photo Chase is taking I just stare at him. Trying to convince a little boy which Star Wars Lego he should get... I was pushing for Leia... the stormtroopers were pushing for more stormtroopers.
I haven't gotten to troop this event since 2010, because they usually hold it right before Dragon Con when I'm sequestered to my sewing room. This year it was in May so I finally got to participate again! Leia problems: I can't get my sunglasses all the way on with the buns. They usually get stuck at some point so I have to wear them like this because some sunglasses is ...
Had a fun and busy weekend. We went up to Jackson Friday night to stay with my grandparents, had dinner at Cracker Barrel and drove Mema crazy with Snapchat. Catty Bob Saturday morning we did a bit of shopping. I got some fabric. Then it was time to head over to the ballpark for Star Wars night. The weather cleared up and we had a great turnout. So many little ...
