In less than two weeks I’ll be back down at my happy place with some of my oldest friends in the world for our annual RunDisney Princess Race Weekend!!! Aside from the fabulous company and magical destination, one of the things that makes our trip so much fun year after year is the planning, plotting and crafting of our race day costumes. I am not exaggerating when I say that hundreds of texts are exchanged between the time when we register in July and land in Orlando in February.
Now, this year is particularly important because not only is it our annual girls trip and MOEs annual birthday trip, but MOE and I are BOTH celebrating the big 4-0!!!!!!! She will turn 40 while we are there and I will reach the top of the hill just days later. eeeeekkkkkk
We took this information especially seriously in our costume planning. As it just so happens, The Muppet Show is also celebrating FORTY this year!!!!!!!!!!!! The bicentennial must have been epic, y’all. It only made sense for our little group to race in honor of our fave Muppet characters. I’ll give y’all one second to guess mine…

Okay, ready?
MISS PIGGYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I already own all sorts of pinkalicious attire (running capris, top, pullover, tennies, arm band, etc.) so all I had to do was pick up a few accessories and make my tutu and pig ears.
I cut my ears out of foam (Michael’s) and attached them to alligator clips as headbands give me a headache. I also found the pink glitter tulle for my tutu and pink tiara (in a set of 6 so we can ALL have one) at Michael’s. The satin gloves were super cheap (and come in all sorts of colors) for how nice they actually are. The feather boa was also found on Amazon. I feel like I used to see them in all sorts of stores but no such luck when I actually needed one. :-)
I really cannot even begin to convey my level of excitement for this trip, y’all!!!
And, if any of you are attending and have questions for me, feel free to post them in the comments and I’ll try to answer.
