Fairie Festival Costumes

I decided I couldn't force you to visit Flickr to see everyone's brilliant, beautiful costumes. So a photo post! After you scroll through these, I *know* you'll want to see more on Flickr. :D

Friday

Really, I have no ups.

Jenn's Jellyfish Fairy :D

Sarah was all gossamer, tutu, corset! :D So pretty in the light!

IMG_8615
And look at the two of them together! Aww! :D

I was foiled in taking any good pictures of Kat's costume because she managed to know whenever I was sneakily attempting it and would counter with a disapproving face. :D Here she is in a group shot. She had on these adorable lemon-lime wings that aren't pictured.

Her husband, Corey, may have been masquerading as a goat. Or....well, it is your guess. ;)

You have to imagine Corey and Kat wearing the awesome unicorn horns that wouldn't stay on their heads. They were incognito unicorns. :D

Thank you. :) It was!

HA, nature got me. FOILED. *scratch scratch* And the prancing unicorn............. I died when I saw the shots you and Sarah got of that. My "frolic" needs some help! ;)

All the costumes turned out so well! Wonderful photos. Poke me - a lot - to get a disc to you with all my photos!

I saw a couple of yours up on Flickr. They're really gorgeous. :) I'd love to see what else you took.

I spared you some of the other prancing shots I have. ;) In most, you look like you are attempting to move in four opposite directions at once. They are very fun(ny). :D Which, makes sense, because so are you!

LOL Now I'm curious! :O

They're slowly popping up from Ryan's computer so I check back and make the pretty ones public. Hopefully that will finish by day's end so I can make a post myself tonight!

I already went to flickr and looked at like three hundred pictures! Ha!! But thank you for sharing these! It makes me feel like I was there, and longing to acutally do it someday. It looks as if you had a WONDERFUL time!

Hee! I did the same thing. I LOVE everyone's costumes and, more importantly, the happy faces!

Isn't it just so JOYFUL??? :-)

:D I don't think there was a moment, all weekend long, when we weren't smiling or laughing or looking at least quietly delighted. :D

I love your pictures!!!

Thank you! I'm sorry I didn't take the opportunity to photograph you and Pete. The two of you were absolutely stunning! :)

You're welcome. I'm glad I could deliver some small sense of what it was like there. :)

Great costumes. It looks like you had fun

Super fun! It has been years since I had much chance to dress up. I'd forgotten just how fun and fabulous it can feel. :D
