The Mermaid Parade! (Part Deux)

So a lot of Saturday involved standing around. Here are some shots from the hour (and a half?!) before we actually started moving.

The Mermaid Parade! (Part One)

So one of the biggest events at Coney Island is the annual Mermaid Parade. It was also one of the biggest projects I, personally, have been working on since starting my job working for Shmaltz this summer. For those of you who may not know, I'm working for a beer company in NYC (we make He'Brew and Coney Island Lagers...both of which are unfortunately not in Texas). It's delicious.

Anyway...hilarious, crazy, fun day. Here's some proof :)

Luciana and Lillia. Lillia is Matt's. All day I was referred to as "Matt's Babysitter" by a bunch of other Shmaltz employees - awesome.

My little worker bee roommates preparing their fab costumes for the Mermaid Parade. Seriously, I live with two of the most talented and creative people I've ever met.

Will and Jen Get Hitched!

One of my oldest (note: Kindergarten) dearest best good friends, Will Neuhaus, got married at the beginning of May. The wedding was easily one of the more fun ones I've been to. We excursion'd to La Grange and Round Top, Texas for a truly incredible day/night. So many old friends. So glad I could be a part of it.

Congrats y'all!

p.s. I promise now that I have moved to Brooklyn, I will get inspired and take more faux-toez.
