Fall in the air

The weather is finally turning colder (yay!) and I'm excited for fall clothes. This may be one of the girliest posts I've done so far, but I really like the clothing that comes out for fall. All the great rich colors and the sweaters and shalls/scarfs (I'm a sucker for a great shall). Also the mountains around here start to turn and turn colors they have. I'm thinking that 1 weekend when we don't have a football game or Jakob doesn't have rehearsal we're going to go up for a bbq and have some fun taking pictures. That also means the shopping trip with my mom to the Park City Outlet Mall. I'm thinking of getting a few friends together this year and going up. We didn't spend that much time there last fall because the stores that we usually go to closed (so sad!) but we're going to try it again this year.

But with fall in the air that means that Jakob has more shows to do and more auditions coming up. It seems he does more shows in the fall than he does in the summer. There is a great opportunity for an audition for him and I'm hoping he gets the invitation. If he got in it would mean that I wouldn't see him for 4 months (literally, it is a touring show) and we would have to push back his student teaching until Fall 2011, but it is a good resume builder and opportunity for him. We'll see where everything goes.

I haven't been working on costumes all that much lately because I haven't had the energy. I get home and I just want to collapse. I don't have a film project upcoming and I really don't have much in the way of charity events I am doing, so many of the costume stuff is on hold. I need to finish up the Cinders dress for Michelle and then a Star Wars dress for me. I'm also hoping that my fairy costumes will sell so I can recoup some of my costs for those. I should be listing them in the next week.

Keep us up to speed on what the audition outcome is!! Have you thought about having an etsy shop for your costumes?

YAY! I love fall, too, and I love the clothes because of the colors and all the fun textures. I need to go take pictures. The reds are already fading. Have fun shopping! I shop at the Outlet all the time, and I need a whole new wardrobe.

Oh, and I hope Jakob gets an invite! Sadly, I'm not sure it will work out for Adam with his job and everything. But a part of me is dying for it to work out. If they both went we'd have to hang out A LOT.

With the way the air conditioning goes around here, I end up pulling out the shawls much earlier than September 23. That's just me, though.
