Here is a latest pic...It's kind of crummy. Maybe I was scan the originial to get a better look.
Thanks to ImageShack for Free Image Hosting
Here are some starting pics.
This is from the fall of 2003. I know I don't look that big compared to a 25-foot horse! This is at Meijer Gardens and is based on a design by Leonardo da Vinci
I'm in the blue sweater...Look how it is squished aganist my hips. It's huge now and my hips aren't as bulgy.
This pic is from a friends wedding on Nov. 1 2003...the weekend before I started beaching. So, that would be me at my heaviest.

What high praise!
The "earrings" are kind of a family joke. I was at the birthday party for my cousin and me and my grandma decided to throw an cocktail party like she used to do in the old days. When we were kids, my cousin and I were obessed with those little umbrellas. I think that was all we could sneak out of the parties! So, at this party I decided to wear them! |

| I used the cocktail umbrellas for my Barbie dolls. They fit perfectly in her dainty little hands. :wink: I had a never ending supply, as my grandparents owned several bars. :) |
