My fiance and I are realizing a dream of ours to build and operate our own puppets! We're big time Muppet fans, and we'd like to become puppeteers.

The ultimate goal is to start doing some live performances for children and to shoot some videos for the web... but first we're hoping to incorporate some puppetry into our Muppet themed wedding next February!

We've started documenting our progress at www.puppetbuilding.blogspot.com! Any tips or encouragement would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

We're making a lot of progress and learning a lot along the way! This is something I have dreamt of doing for years and it is just as much fun as I had imagined!

This is where we are now...
