Jessie Goes to Asia

Here's Jessee, the Yodeling Cowgirl - dressed up for our new series, "Kung Pow!" Madison decided to dress her up in this nice red Asian outfit, which just so happens to fit perfectly. Obviously, there's another doll out there that is missing her outfit, but the weather is pretty hot right now, so at least that other doll is comfortable. Jessie certainly looks comfortable here, posing in front of Mommy's latest display case. This time, she's filled it up with items related to our series - some of which we brought back from China. The wall hangings, for example, came from Guangzhou - I can't wait to get them back and have them hanging in the house once more. They're very nice. By the way, this may be the only Jessie on the entire planet in such a costume. I suppose it answers the question, "What if Jessie had stayed on that plane at the end of 'Toy Story 2' and wound up going to Japan?"

All this series, KidPak is going to the Far East. We have a great set that brings back some good memories - here's a photo of it still in the early stages of being put together.

Madison has been at the office all day with everyone, as Daddy and Mommy work away to make this the best series we can. Lots of people have been here working into the night, and tomorrow promises to be an outstanding day with funny videos and a great message (and a good skit too!). Daddy wants to work Madison into the videos as well, so look for her in a karategi sometime soon - she'll be practicing her poses and getting ready to do a karate chop.

Egg Drop Soup

Today is Canada Day, not that we had time to celebrate it. Maybe next year. Things have been kind of busy lately as we've been gearing up for a new series. Fortunately, we'll be out of the "busy mode" soon, after nailing down our newest series on Sunday. Until then though, things will be somewhat hectic around here: we're moving fast towards a deadline, and working very late into the night. Tonight, we ate at Oriental Garden 2 again - the waitress knows exactly what Madison wants each time we go there: egg drop soup. No one needs to ask: the waitress just brought it tonight without even taking her order! Madison likes the fish tank there, and everyone likes the food. Oriental Garden 2 has been our Chinese restaurant for some time now, although I believe it has been under new management lately. The food is still good though!

Madison is spending a lot of time at work lately with us as we ready for a new series. But don't worry - I think she's found a decent place to rest whenever she gets tired:
