To continue from my previous Dragon Con post -- we got up Sunday morning at 6 AM and started the drive down into Orlando! YAY! This post consists of my iphone photos and our photopass pics - I haven't gotten Chase's photos yet so that will be part 2. SUNDAY! We finished up our audiobook of Deathly Hallows that morning and swung into Ready Player One - we actually successfully listened to ...
We're back!!! Ok so I don't have much to share in the first post. But it's enough to recap Saturday at least. Friday I took off work, finished packing, cleaned the house, went for a swim: Tiniest Dragoncon load EVER. Saturday morning we loaded up the car and were on the road by 6 AM. We got into Atlanta right at 1, though it took us another 20-30 minutes to make it ...
Several of you guys have asked me if I still have SunDowner online. I've been promising to throw it up on my site soon... but I just haven't gotten around to it. The problem is that my name is on eeeeeeeeeeverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrything (and I've worked hard to not use that name online anymore), so I don't really want them public just yet until I can find time to scrub everything off. ...
When I'm stuck at work and everybody else is at Dragon Con Ugh! I've been totally OK with it up until today. Seeing everybody arriving and missing out... I thought Friday would be the tough day but no, it's today. I repleated my Tightrope Walker skirt last night. Went faster than I expected. I got my suitcase for Disney repacked last night. Holy crap is it heavy. But everything is ...
I haven't posted much lately... haven't had much of anything to post! Went to my grandma's for the weekend. Came back Saturday just to go to the Ren Faire with friends (I said I'd do it... I did it)... this time I wasn't messing around. No attempt at curls, just a ponytail. Much better. Threw my flower crown I got at Megacon on, too. Ash and I watched Paolo Garbanzo ...
Ignore the packing going on behind me. I got the hook and eye attached and the sweater I'd been wanting from modcloth came, so I put it all on together. I do wish I had some yellow flats I could add red bows to to wear with it :) Last night I packed all my clothes for the trip which was probably dumb because I'll likely have to break into it ...
I took these pics for a facebook last night so I thought I'd share them here, too, and expound on my post. Several years ago I was obsessed with the different variations of Disney Princess costumes at the parks. I collected photos from all the parks, the parades/stage show/meet-and-greet variations... I had a huge collection saved on my computer. Somewhere during that brief obsession I came across a ...
I've never had free time in August. It's so weird. I was actually bored this weekend because I had no costumes to work on. And we had time to go to the Ren Faire Saturday! Unfortunately we totally picked the wrong day today. We were torn between Sat and Sun based on the weather, but Sat ended up working better for us so we just grabbed umbrellas and went. I ...
Got Chase's pics from Saturday uploaded! Sometimes when I know I'm in the background of a photo Chase is taking I just stare at him. Trying to convince a little boy which Star Wars Lego he should get... I was pushing for Leia... the stormtroopers were pushing for more stormtroopers.
I know I've done similar before... and this won't be just a rehashing of my original "con report." A couple of weeks ago when I was looking at old Hermione photos for instagram, I was flipping through them and thinking, "oh yeah, that was the night before I left for the midnight show, I refused to wear makeup or a skirt, so I wore jeans and did nothing with my ...
