Just a little Wednesday afternoon blackmail...

Ran across a 4 year old email from my mom just now.
Love you, Marc! (Sorry, but I had to.)
























I suppose some explanation is due...

This picture was taken of Marc in the outfit that he wore for a video we did for my grandparent's 60th wedding anniversary. They got a letter and certificate from the Queen, so Marc dressed up in that, with a wig, glasses and make-up, and pretended that my dad's law office was his (well, really her) office and gave a big greeting to them with an English accent. With some funny bits thrown in (as if that outfit isn't funny enough in itself). S/he went through her daily schedule at the end of it which included something like: tea, sign stuff, more tea, wave, sign more stuff, serious talk with Charles, just a smidgen more tea, etc. Marc was a great sport. And this picture proves it, as it was taken way after the anniversary back at our apartment in Regina. My mom never did get a still picture of him as the Queen, so she took it then. As you can see, the Queen without make-up is not very becoming!

Oh ya, and when we went to the Salvation Army to buy his get-up, Marc was quite convinced that he could fit into a size 8 dress. He wouldn't try them on at first and said, "let's just get that size 8, I'm sure it will fit." In the end I got him to try them on, and I think we came home with a size 20 at least!!
