Costumes! costumes and more costumes!

Yes I have been busy!

The kids school drama is coming up on Friday evening. And I have been very busy making costumes.

My boys are monkeys so I made hats and tails for them. There is also a little girl who is a monkey so I made her a hat and tail to match. I'll get pictures of them on Friday.

Then Ashley is a gazelle. Hello? Do you know how hard it is to come up with a gazelle costume? I did it and I'm quite proud of myself. And since it was tough coming up with a costume, I volunteered to make the other gazelle costume.

Then on Friday, some of the lions came with manes. Apparantly 4 of them are only supposed to be cubs with with no manes. One girl ended up giving her costume to another person, so I volunteered to make a hat and tail for her. Then it was suggested that they really wanted all of them to look alike. So guess what? I volunteered to make all of them. Here is a picture of Austin in one of the hats holding up a tail. I don't know why they decided to go with cream, but I stayed with what they wanted. Can you tell it is a little white lion? I always get so nervous that someone won't like what I make.

Then there was this little girl and I couldn't tell what she was, I had to ask. So I picked up some materials and thought I would try to make her a costume. I didn't tell her, because I wasn't sure if I could actually make it. Well today I tried it on her and she loves it. Can you tell what she is? A peacock.

I can't wait to get some good pictures of everybody on Friday.
