Greg and I had a bit of red felt and enthusiasm left after our Aladdin costumes, so we put together a quick costume for Pixel. Even though Pix isn’t actually from St. Louis, he’s still proud (can’t ya tell?) of the World Series Champs. Go Cardinals! To make his Cardinal costume, we just used felt, …
