"A Lion for Sherry"

A dear lady in my life has passed on - & this painted lion is for that beautiful red-headed
woman in the sky.... we'll miss you so much -

"Darth Me"



Ok - Now this is as nerdy as I can get... Let me explain - My mom's friend, who she knows through a community groups son was throwing a Star Wars wedding... so of course -
I had to go as Darth Vader... I have the build, the mannerisms... the bad acting - It was a good time. So in honor of the great Comic-Con coming up, I thought this would be great time join my fellow nerds - and plaster this on my blog.... I'll post my booth number and alla that info next week! -mm
