showing family pride

I've been meaning to blog about the whole "duct tape prom dress" thing, but kept forgetting, until an email arrived informing me that my second cousin is one of the finalists. See the tall skinny guy on the left? That's him. Both outfits were made by his date, Adrienne. Random facts: sewing the outfits involved oiling the needle every time it went through the duct tape "fabric." Also: her dress weighs twenty-seven pounds.
Anyway, Z&A are currently in second places; if they win there is scholarship money involved for both of them. Check out all the awesome creativity, and vote for someone, even if they're not related to me. Those kids have invested a ton of effort, and I, for one, am seriously impressed.
