FAMulous Prep

Live shows are a lot of work. I have been working most of the day on FAMulous and this is the state of my office right now.

I have been going through tubs looking for things that Allison and I will need for the show,

working on welcome gifts and letters,

and packing the things that are ready to go into tubs and boxes.

The ribbons that we packed away from the last show were pulled out of storage

put into piles,

and grouped so that the judges can grab a set and hand them out. There are more ribbons on order; they were shipped today and are scheduled to arrive tomorrow.

There are some really generous folks in our hobby.

Elise Partanen sent the Christmas items and the mystery box (which I am dying to open!!)

and these

and these! All beautifully wrapped so that all we have to do is put them out on the table! (Thanks so much, Elise!)

Liz Cory donated a $25 gift card to Breyer (thanks, Liz!), and other donations are on the way. 

It would be an understatement to say I am tired, but it is a happy-tired. I love the hobby and while a live show is a ton of work, it will be worth it to spend a day with others who love vintage models like I do.

Now, off to figure out how to make a racing blanket for the lunchtime FAS races. More on that activity to come. Stay 'tooned!
