C3

We just came back from our 2^nd year at the Cherry Capitol Con (C3), which is definitely one of the best things we do all year round. Mark, Sherief, and I always have an amazing time. The atmosphere is bar none, the company is not only fun but also phenomenally talented. Most importantly, it feels like you are being paid to hang out with your best friends and then party with them after. 

Some of the highlights from our booth:

Not to mention the other great people we love:

And of course there was shenanigans:

All in all, such a great time! My only wish is that they would stop hosting it on Memorial Weekend.

MoMo!!!

Today I fell in love with MoMo. Nibbler's arraigned marriage wife. Artemis likes her already as well.

I think she will fit in nicely.

Wine & Stein

This was my 2nd year attending the Wine & Stein at Potter Park Zoo. This is an event that raises money for the zoo and allows people to try out local wines, beers, and food.

Last year I had a great time and was not let down this year.

 As I have pretty amazing friends, we of course had a delightful time this year too, with many the adventure.

However, the Mosquito's drove us out early.

Free Comic Book Day

Free Comic Book Day is such a great experience. It is geared towards getting kids interested in comic and READING. I love doing this with Mark and Sherief. The kids are always so cute and happy. It's great. Plus we get to make Sherief draw non-stop...which is also fun.

Jewelry

I don’t often make jewelry, as I am rarely inspired in this area. However, with my mom’s birthday fast approaching, I felt an inkling of inspiration and jumped on it.

This piece mostly required finding enough chain and connecting it in order to secure the bead placements. Then I just futzed around with it until I liked how it laid.
