friday night
Me and Pat kept it pretty simple Friday night and worked on our costumes, everything started really coming together finally, and I personally was very very very excited for Saturday night! Here are some inspiration pieces I found when "designing" my robot costume... I have sketches also to post tomorrow.

saturday
We got up, made breakfast, and started working on our costumes some more. Everything was finally completed by around 3, just in time to head up to Portland. The drive there was pretty quick, we got to Colleen's house at exactly 6pm, ate some dinner, and started getting ready. Megan showed up and we went upstairs to share a tiny tiny mirror and put all of our sparkly makeup on. After a few costume malfunctions we were FINALLY ready to go downstairs and enjoy the party! It really took us a long time to get ready though, which, knowing us, is not very surprising. I was wearing some really epic fake eyelashes too and was super excited about it!
saturday night
The party got started and more and more people in epic robot costumes started showing up. Colleen was Rosie from The Jetsons and seriously looked awesome! Sam was a robot with changing mustaches (haha), Tiff and Jason came in painted robot T-shirts, Ashley and her boyfriend were characters from Wall-E, and Pat looked freaking sweet in his costume! Surprisingly there were no characters from Star Wars or anything, lots of tin foil though. It was a late night... The pictures below are a little bitty preview, though I plan to do a full party feature tomorrow!

sunday
Pat really wanted to go wine tasting, so we got up and headed to Carlton where we always go. It was so cold and blustery outside! I was thankful to be indoors and warm. The storm cleared a little bit, long enough for us to make our way to some of the other tasting rooms, and snap a few pictures. Unfortunately the restaurant we wanted to eat dinner at was closed for a private event, so we drove home and cooked some pasta instead.
