Today was finally the day that we would take all of the
stuff we created to the Westmoreland County Fair. Honestly, it is nice to
finally have the stuff completed, allowing the house to get back to some type
of normalcy. In all, there was a lot of cool stuff created (at least, I thought
it was cool). Whether or not the judges see some things the same way is another
question.
For me, I was surprised that I actually completed all five
items I signed up for. While they all did not come out as good as I had hoped,
I think that a couple of them are really good. More importantly, all of the
materials used were upcycled from different pieces we have picked up throughout
different travels. My favorite piece has to be the movie projector lamp (with a
cool shade from Bren). Bren created some cool stuff as well (besides my lampshade)
and looks to continue her success from the Fayette County Fair.

The girls created some awesome stuff in all of their
categories. Unfortunately, I think that some of their stuff will not be taken
in the same light as we look at it. I guess that is one of the downfalls in
regular society for kids that grow up in the horror / zombie walk community.
But, oh well, that’s life. These are some of the items created by the daughters.
