Two weeks from now we will be checking in to our hotel for Dragon con. We will be home.

We love being at Dragon Con, there is always so much to do and we seem to always be on the move but it’s such a blast. Between the shopping, at the vendor halls, the amazing cosplay, and the guests it’s never a dull moment.

We have traditions that we like to keep to, friends we always love to see, and the best part is just being surrounded by so many people who love and are passionate about the same things we are.

This year feels a little more relaxed than others just because I did not have any new costumes I was making for this year, I’ll be recycling my Lady Galadriel Dress from last year as well as some of my Star Wars outfits that wore to the Galactic Starcruiser.

Every year we do try to change it up a little whether it’s findings new places to eat or participating in the Dragon Con parade it keeps the convention fun every year. This year we are actually going to try to go to a couple of the evening parties, one will be Tolkien inspired and the other star Wars. I also made ribbons this year to hand out which is something new we are doing.

As always I am looking forward to hitting the vendor halls first thing on Friday, to me this has always been the highlight of the convention, I don’t always spend a lot of money but just walking up and down the rows of vendor booths looking for that special find brings me so much joy.

This year is even more special because one of my favorite actors will be attending, this will be a long-time dream come true if I can get Michael Shanks (aka Dr. Daniel Jackson) from Stargate SG1 to sign a piece of the Stargate I’ve been building. It will be something that will make me so happy and will give me so many good memories.

To those of you going to Dragon Con, hope to see you there.
