Preparing to be king


 William has been working for days on his King Ludwig III costume for the parade. While the mask and crown are just prototypes, the whole thing is looking good. 

Lunch with mom


 Mom was full of energy today. Lori took her to Costco first thing in the morning, but it was still a zoo. I came over at noon and took mom book shopping and toy shopping and for lunch.

New bird mask design

Helping William with some materials today. I made a bid mask out of issue paper based paper mache, no wire, just a wax paper lined cone that I removed making it light and somewhat translucent.

Post exhibition painting

I won't add this to the exhibition. No real point. It would require too much work and no one would notice. This is a camera that came from someone who was at the reception last week.

William head shot

William needed a head shot photo for something and couldn't locate a recent picture so we did a quick session in the bathroom (yes, that is the shower curtain behind him. Sue me). Most were thoughtful but we were goofing around and I got an authentic smile out of him.
