The Making of My Sister’s Wedding: Hair Trials

July 27, 2013 by kelerr

Yesterday my sister and two cousins came over for a little sleepover so we could do hair trials for the wedding. With just over a month to go, it is now crunch time, and wedding duties and tasks are occuring practically dailt. Our cousin Kara is hair-style capable (unlike myself; I’m lucky I can work the hair dryer!) and she is going to be doing Lindsay’s hair. The above is what they came up with after a few tries at […]

The Making of My Sister’s Wedding: Flower Girl Dresses, Part Five

July 17, 2013 by kelerr

We are nearing the end of the flower girl dress project. I have one more dress to go, and then I have to wait until the flower girls are in town so I can fit the dresses, properly hem them and add the zippers! I’m excited – it’s wedding crunch time at the moment. It’s still about fifty days away, but that’s nothing, and all of these projects are going to run into each other soon enough if they’re not […]

No Rats Included

July 8, 2013 by kelerr

Note: This comes from something I wrote for work for the 2005-2006 school year. It was part of a memoir/cookbook project I used to do. When my cousins and I get together, it is always a grand affiar. We see each other a lot, and every time we get together we pick up just where we left off the last time we saw each other. We love to make crazy home movies in which we create our own television shows […]

Travel Tales: Los Angeles 2006, Part Three

July 6, 2013 by kelerr

Our last full day in Los Angeles (July 29, 2006) began when we headed on a complete tour of the Los Angeles area. We started off our day with a laugh, as we realized that Jordan and his friend Ian were wearing virtually matching outfits by accident – yellow shirts and greenish shorts. So we piled into the car and went to the Chinese Theater, and to see the Walk of Fame. We parked the car in a very sketchy […]

Travel Tales: Los Angeles 2006, Part Two

July 5, 2013 by kelerr

Day three of our Los Angeles journey began with our first glimpse of the Hollywood sign. After a quick breakfast of – what else? – toast and peanut butter we headed out, intent on making it to Universal Studios. Jordan took us on a brief tour of Hollywood on the way to the studio, so in addition to the sign we got to see the Chinese Theater for the first time, the Kodak Theater (where they hold the Oscars) and […]

Travel Tales: Los Angeles 2006, Part One

July 4, 2013 by kelerr

Note: As with the Hawaii Travel Tales series, this a repost from my family blog. Realizing that this post had no pictures to accompany it because we were mostly on the plane and arrived late at night, I’m combining the first two posts. In the summer of 2006, my cousin Jordan travelled to Los Angeles to take some film classes at UCLA. Deciding this was the perfect opportunity to see the city, my cousins Emily, Kara (who are also Jordan’s […]

The Making of My Sister’s Wedding: The Men’s Bow Ties, Part One

July 3, 2013 by kelerr

In a much shorter series, let’s begin the chronicle of making the bow ties. My sister was looking around for bow ties to purchase, but discovered they were quite expensive, and the bridal party is rather large (ten girls, eight guys). So, putting my sewing skills to good use yet again, we are making the bow ties. The fabric was purchased during the same shopping trip in which we procured the flower girl fabric. She decided on a green seersucker. […]

Travel Tales: Hawaii 2004, Part Five

July 1, 2013 by kelerr

Day six began with a search for the bus to take us to Hanauma Bay to go snorkeling. After walking around for what felt like an hour, we finally had to ask directions, only to be sent back in the direction of our own hotel, where the bus was across the street! We arrived at Hanauma Bay and had to wait on a very long line to get inside to watch a special video about what NOT to do while […]
