I envisioned this as me jumping off the court house steps, with my cape flying behind, but I kind of thought it would be animal abuse, LOL. He agreed to wear the red hoodie and fly so I thanked him.
Here is my entry--Mommy and Gilly, super heroes in flight.

Valentino - Red Fronted Macaw - Hatched August 12, 2012

• Oct 14, 2013

Okay..I guess time is getting short and although I had made Valentino this shiny black cape in class I did it freehand with no measurements so the cape fits my Scottish Terrier Mecerdes and is WAY TOO BIG for Valentino. LOL

Instead I am going to submit my pirate picture I took with Diego. This picture is kind of bitter sweet because Diego is no longer with us. I miss him every day and it is hard sometimes to look at pictures of him.

The story behind the picture is for a Holloween theme party my friends have every year. The party is a big deal every year because the couple met at a Holloween party. That year it was Pirates theme because of the movie Pirates of the Caribbean. It took me a week to make my costume as I went all out and really did well with making my "Captain Jack Sparrow" costume. The jacket alone was my hardest piece to sew and took me almost 20 hours to construct it. The costume was quite celebrate and I still have this costume. Every once in a while I still use it for a costume party.

Diego did go with me to the party. Lupe took this picture before we packed up to drive off to the party. Unfortunately the picture was taken with a first generation digital camera. It is not the best quality.

Fargo- Blue and Gold Macaw

I did try and get pictures with Fargo wearing a witches hat with orange hair on the sides, got a few good ones.. But then he did this pose, and just liked it the most

Will make a thread on Halloween with him wearing his lovely witches hat Will probably have another photoshoot with him later and try and get some more!

This is about as good as my decorations get, don't really celebrate Halloween as much as you Americans do hahaha

Then he tried to eat the big spider.. If only he was such a killer bird when i had a REAL spider in my room hehe
