Silly Stuff

Can you believe there were actually three people dressed as Tequila bottles?

There was a huge mexican feast for dinner. One of my brother and SIL's friends parents (does that make sense) used to own a mexican restaurant, so their friend cooked everything from scratch - nachos, guacamole, bean dip, salsa, tacos. burritos, rice etc etc etc etc. OMG Delicious!

He also managed to set off the fire alarms...

It was all too much for this little mexican. I needed a siesta!

The End.

Ole - Part Two

It's party night tonight for my SIL's Mexican Themed Birthday bash!

Earlier in the week I had a chance to refashion the giant pink oppy skirt for my sister to wear as part of her costume..... but then she went and got herself admitted to hospital.

Sheesh! Some people will do anything to avoid dressing up in a silly costume....

Anyhow, I'd better go and search for some thermal undies to wear under mine. It's going to be bloody freezing. Brrrrrr!

Ole - Part One

My SIL is having a mexican themed birthday bash in a couple of weeks time and all the guests are required to dress up (eeeek)!

My first port of call for dress up occassions is always the oppy...

I was in search of something for myself, and also for my sister.
I found this bright stripey dress / tunic thingie, but looking at it on Frances, I have a feeling it may be a bit too small.

Luckily I also found this ginormous skirt.

It's long and wide with heaps of fabric, so I can quite easily transform it into a simple tiered skirt - a la mexican style (or so I'm hoping).

Stay tuned for Ole - Part Two... coming soon
