FIRST AND FOREMOST...... Chase and I took the last big load of my costume stuff out to my parents last Monday night. And... I GOT IT ALL IN THE CLOSET Guysssss... that is like 80% of my costumes all shoved into one closet. I mean I can't GET to anything, but i can't believe I got it all in there. Kept a few things out I'll need over the summer for ...
It's the usual post-weekend Monday update. First up! Saturday night we went to Sci-Fi night with the Riverkings. When they say "take a silly picture" I never know what to do LOL It was fun, Chase wants to go to another game just to sit and watch. Which brings me to Leia updates.... This was probably the second-to-last troop for my Leia costume. I figure The Last Jedi opening night ...
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 ...
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. ...
This weekend we got to do a really fun event - the Memphis Symphony Orchestra was doing a John Williams tribute and invited us out for it. Friday night we went up to the rehearsal to get an idea of what they wanted us to do. For each Star wars song they wanted a related character or characters onstage. For the prequel era we only had Amidala (me) and Jango. ...
Yesterday we did a little event at the Pink Palace! One of my fav places in the world. Since it was earlier in the day, Chase couldn't get off in time for it so mom drove us over. (After New Year's Eve I refuse to drive in costume unless I absolutely have to LOL) Since it was a Deep Space theme she wore her flight suit! (If you've ever wondered ...
Part One: Glinda I finished up the Glinda bodice Saturday! Friday night I had a near panic attack over the ribbons, because as I got to the end I realized I was running shorter than I expected. As I got to the last segment I was two strips short. But, I had 6 stripes on the left side of the back, and only 4 on the unfinished right side - so I ...
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 ...
