This weekend we will be hosting Caroline\u2019s birthday party. Considering how legendary her last birthday party became, we had to figure out how to match it or exceed it. <\/p>\n
So this year we are hosting C-Con 2016 with a dealers table, an autographing, an art show, costume call, gaming, panels, and a con suite or the equivalent. <\/p>\n
The con suite will be where the food and beverages will be served. <\/p>\n
The art show will be created during the party as we encourage the convention members to make art. <\/p>\n
Gaming is easy as we have plenty of card and board games to be played. Last years Apples to Apples game was epic and now we have exploding kittens to play. <\/p>\n
The dealers table is set up for the goodie bag. We have tons of things that we have picked up at conventions and the like that we have no use for or interest in but apparently are still considered cool to others so we give them a budget and they can \u2018buy\u2019 the stuff that they want. <\/p>\n
We have said that costumes are not mandatory but we are going to pull out the cloaks and simple costume pieces so those who want to dress up can. <\/p>\n
The panels and autographing are going to be rather tongue in cheek but should be fun. <\/p>\n
So an entire convention in an afternoon.<\/p>\n
Next step is to make the badges for the convention.<\/p>\n
Should be fun. Photos next week along with the how we did it.<\/p>\n
I am grateful for the amount of creativity in the house.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
