This whole year, many of our build parties have led to this weekend. We’ve been working on costumes, dresses, and acquiring pieces for our outfits. We’ve been coordinating and making plans and reservations for months! and it all paid off!
I picked my brother up from the airport, and chatted a bunch on our way home. Picked up Jaime and loaded up the truck. It’s nice staying downtown, right across from the convention center. While there, we met up with Angela and Alex, Alex flew in to join us and was rooming with my brother!
We also went next door to find Mariah and give her, her badge.
The next day we unveiled our Cinderella outfits. Jaime really did an amazing job both on the Cinderella light up hoop skirt that was the magic effect for Cinderella to go from rags to ballgown, and Jaime also did a great job on Lady Tremaine. The whole outfit and hair!
Jonathan and I were so sassy it was hilarious! Our friends outfits matched well with our whole group!
Selfies!
Here’s a link to the video (you have to be friends with me on Facebook for it to work)
The end of the day, we switched into normal clothes, ran into one of our friends, and watched the drag show and the burlesque show and laughed more than we thought possible!
After a restful night, my brother and I did Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow, Jaime wasn’t feeling well and stayed in for a bit. Surprisingly we got a few photo requests from people. We mostly walked the con floor searching for toys. We met up several times with many of our friends.
When Jaime came to join us, she was stopped by Paul Sun-Hyung Lee, and told how good she looked! He gave her a hug. That was really cool!
We ended the night with watching the masquerade and then grabbing some food before bed.
Our last day and it’s typically our plain clothes day so that we can wander around and shop. We got to see our resident Alien, Alan Tudyk’s panel and that was pretty fun! We also took some time to talk with our friends today!
We ended the night with a big group dinner, then hung out at the pool until they kicked us out, then finally when everyone was tired, we kicked them out of our room. Con was so fun this year!
