Johnny Depp Monday!

Now, if we could just get rid of the pesky windshield, camera lens, computer screen that keep us apart...

Johnny Depp Monday!

The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus - Limited US release December 25, 2009

I Need To Set The Record Straight.

I did not make Vivi's costume. It was bought for her at a resale shop by Kendra aka The Thrift Store Diva. I believe she paid $1 for it. Vivi originally wanted to be Cinderella, but fell in love with the little pink dress, she changed her mind.

So, for those of you with scorecards, let's go down the list.

Vivi's 5 Little Monkeys Birthday Cake - Made by us.

Emerson's Rockford Peach Costume - Made by us.

Vivi's China Doll Costume - Store bought.

I'm sorry for the extra paperwork.

In other news, we received a note from Emerson's school regarding Halloween Costumes.

"At _______School we celebrate Halloween in a fun, non-violent way. Please plan your child's Halloween costume with the following in mind:

Costumes must:

-NOT BE WORN TO SCHOOL

-BE OF A NON-VIOLENT NATURE

- Not contain any weapons (real or imitation). This includes but is not limited to swords, guns, knives, clubs, lasers, etc.

- Not contain any fake blood or other gruesome masks.

- Not represent a violent character such as Freddie Krueger, "Jason", an axe-murderer, terrorist, etc.

And my very favorite.

-Cover the child appropriately, that is: no exposed torso, chest area, buttocks, etc.

Man, now I have to put away Emerson's pair of assless chaps until Thanksgiving! That school takes the piss out of everything!!

Vivi's Halloween Costume

I will post pictures of Emerson's costume when I have it finished. She doesn't need it until Friday and I still have some finishing touches to do.

Happy Birthday Vivienne!

5 Years ago today, they put that tiny little girl in my arms for the first time. My life was changed forever and I can't imagine it without her.

Happy Birthday Vivi! No matter how big you get, you will always be my baby.
