We had a great time at our church's family New Year's Eve party with a sock hop theme. When I asked Cat if she wanted to dress up or dress 50's style, she whole-heartedly went for the 50's. We had a lot of fun putting our costumes together which comprised of a day of shopping at the local thrift stores where we found our plain skirts, the scarves and Cat's shirt. Good ol' "Wally World" had crystal sequins and my shirt and a little on-line shopping found us the poodle appliques, crinolines and glasses. The rest of the accessories were found in my closet. We spent the good part of a Saturday hemming the skirts to the right length and applying the appliques and the sequins to make the leash. Cat did an amazing job with sequins! We had a lot of fun at the dance, too, spending our fair share of time on the dance floor. Shanti even got in on the action a couple times. When Wes and I slow "danced", he was right there with us.
