Doba Day 2009

Yesterday was Doba Day at Sean's work. It's a day Sean and I look forward to for months and is a crazy, zany day when all the employees go crazy celebrating the company's birthday. Last year we had a lot more prep time and Sean - dressed as the Doba Mad Scientist - came away as the 2008 Doba Day Champion.

This year we didn't decide to do anything for Doba Day until just a couple of days before, so it wasn't nearly as spectacular than what we pulled off last year, but it was still a ton of fun! This year Sean was the Doba Hatter. I spent hours and hours making his costume, and I don't think I've used so much spray paint and hot glue in my LIFE.

Here are a few pics from the big day.

The sign I made for the hall in front of Sean's office:


The Cheshire Cat banner I made:

Sean got the unofficial "Best Costume" award from the company's CEO:


They made big cutouts of Doba winners in years past. Here's the cutout of Sean from last year as the Doba Mad Scientist:


Like father, like son:


Sean LOVED playing Rock Band. I'm glad we can't afford it because I'm pretty sure he'd play this all day every day if we had it. :)


It was a great day, and we're already brainstorming ideas for next year's Doba Day!
