its wicket, ya'll

Finally took some pictures of Sawyer in his Wicket costume. 

I'm pretty sure he's the cutest Ewok. EVER.

And once again, I must declare my undying love for my mom who crafted this fine work of art for my little guy.

ha ha! I love this one! 

And thanks to Tom for being Sawyers tripod

Sawyers Room

Soy Sauces room is still in progress. I have a vintage Disney poster to frame and an old Coke bottle crate I'm turning into a shelf. But until I can get around to those things, here it is:

 Every house needs a pirate flag.

I found the vintage "Tom Sawyer" book a couple of years ago. I took it as a sign. I always knew I'd have a boy next. And its pretty cool that it has the names of the two most important guys in my life, don't you think?

(yay for crappy cell phone pics!)

 Mae painted this for Sawyer when he was still in my belly. It's all of us, standing under a rainbow. It hangs over his changing table, and he looks up at it and giggles. He loves it.

Vintage suitcases my buddy gave us.

 Soy Sauce himself! What a handsome fellow!

These are from my large collection of dolls/stuffed animals that I used to collect. In high school. :)

 What? Who's this, you ask? Just the cutest baby alive in a fuzzy aviator hat with EARS! WHAT?! I know....you get it...I adore him.

Hallows Eve

A little late, I know.....

Toms place of work had a huge Halloween party for employees and their families with games, trick or treating, and a couple of Haunted Houses!

Wicket the Ewok

(thanks to my talented mom for making this costume!)

Dorothy Gail

(My mom made this costume as well, but about 25 years ago. It was mine when I was Maes age!)                                                     

 Cindel and Wicket from The Ewok Adventure

and then it was off to my sisters church Trunk or Treat, where Mae was posing "cool". I wonder what kind of teenager she's going to be....

It has seriously been a dream of mine to dress up as Cindel and dress my baby as Wicket. If you haven't seen the movies, DO IT! Good stuff, for sure, my friends.

No one knew who I was. One lady saw me and started singing Olivia Newton Johns "Lets Get Physical."  My sister pointed out to me later that the hair and headband made sense, but why would Olivia Newton John be wearing snow boots and a puffer vest while working out? Silly lady!
