Another fun Halloween is in the books! Â Halloween is a big deal in Verona so we have no shortage of creepy backdrops to use for photos. Â In fact we had to move a few houses down because the zombie behind me in the first few shots was creeping the girls out too much!! This year {…Continue Reading}

Who’s Behind That False Face?
Who’s behind that false face, Nobody knows but me, Who’s behind that false face, Nobody knows but me, I won’t tell you, you will have to guess, If your guess is right, I will answer “Yes!”  Did you do a costume parade when you were growing up? We would go in a long line {…Continue Reading}
KCWC: Day 5
I’m kind of a big deal in certain circles. Those circles being my friend’s son Victor. He requested a cow costume for Halloween a couple of years ago and has since named me his personal costumer. He wanted to be a tree this year, which seems a relatively easy request – sort of. This is how {…Continue Reading}
KCWC: Day 4
Did you guess? Yup, I went with the silver pleather. The black just seemed to contrast-y and it seemed like the perfect opportunity to use silver pleather. I mean when else except Halloween and maybe dress up can you say that? I still used the black felt, but more as a stabilizer in between each {…Continue Reading}
KCWC: Day 3
I’m not sure I should be allowed to be this excited about something I made, but I seriously love these little ladybug wings! They took less than an hour to make and turned out soo much better than I had envisioned. I used some of the leftover polka dot fabric from her dress and I had bought {…Continue Reading}

Despicable Me is the first movie she started to pay attention to, and I think I’ve seen it at least 50 times now. This was a good year for this type {…Continue Reading}
Complete Cow Costume
Remember this? Arden modeled Victor Marcus’ cow costume after I had the bulk of it finished. It was still in progress, and now I’ve finished up the costume. Here are the final details: I spent a lot of time deliberating how to make hoof mittens, and then I realized that I could make them two-dimensional and he {…Continue Reading}
Cow Costume for Victor Marcus
My good friend Kim was lamenting about how she wasn’t able to find a cow costume for her two year old son Victor Marcus  that she liked that wasn’t insanely expensive. Since I didn’t have anything at all to keep me busy every evening for the next couple of weeks (ha!), I volunteered to make him {…Continue Reading}
A Little of This and That
I don’t have any fun projects completed to post, so I’ll just do a quick wrap up of what’s been going on. We broke ground – literally – on our garage reconstruction. On Thursday, they took out the old slab, dug for the footings, and put in the foundation walls. We’re using a treated lumber {…Continue Reading}
Princess Sophie and the Pea
A local animal rescue sponsors a Dirty Dog run each year where you can run with your dogs on the trails. Last year I ran with Laser and the oaf dragged me over hill and dale for the entire 5k. Normally, he poops out and I’m dragging him after the first mile or so. Turns out {…Continue Reading}
