Thursday, the boys and I dressed as characters from Supernatural. I think Harrison really liked it because he got to wear a necklace (which he lost) and he and Sam got to be brothers.
But mostly, the boys were excited for Star Wars costumes on Friday. Darth Vader was very popular and our little family stood out. A Kylo Ren even bowed down before my Darth Vader son and it was hilarious.
Both of the kids were completely burnt out by Friday midday and I think next year we're going to shorten it to one day at con for them. It's just a bit much for a toddler and baby.
Saturday was our free day! The Star Wars meet up was super fun and I was surprised at only 12 Rey cosplays. I was thinking we'd hit 20. I took a lot of pictures and some selfies with random cosplayers.
Saturday evening I was backstage for my masquerade shift in which I ended up tallying all of the scores for the contestants at last minute since someone didn't show up for it. But I like numbers, so it was fun (and I forgot my phone had a calculator, so I started off by hand!) I'm hoping to make it simpler next year with a computer.
I love con. It's my favorite weekend every year. And I am so excited for next year already! Costume plans are in the works!
May the force be with you...
