Lu Ann and I at MCC with our kimonos. Lu Ann's mom made them for us over the course of October. Pictures speak more than words about how the kimonos turned out, but they are extremely comfy and are very nice to cuddle in ^_^ Nathan was kind enough to take pictures of us that day and I was able to wrestle those pictures from him today.
We entered the costume contest at MCC, and we won a DVD player for first prize best costumes (I don't take too much credit, Lu Ann looks way better than me.) Lu Ann is dressed in Tomoe's colors from the Kenshin OAV. If I had more time and funds I would look more like Kenshin, but alas, it was not meant to be this year.
I heard that last year some d00d dressed as a crackhead won the contest, so I am glad that we were able to do the contest justice this year, at least.
