This Keeler Crew decided to celebrate by attending the second day of Fan Expo. Avalyn was very excited to attend. We even engaged in a little light cosplay. Avalyn and Jude got to wear their pjs that look like Captain Marvel and Spider-man respectively. Jamie wore her Agent Carter dress and official hat. I brought the shield and wore my Captain America shirt.
And while it was fun, it was very clear it will be something more engaging for the kids when they are a little older. A little to overwhelming now. And it probably didn't help that it was smack in the middle of nap time.
Lot's of cool stuff all around though. The Jurassic Park jeeps and the Back to the Future Delorean. The casts of Back to the Future, Boy Meets World, and a handful of the Goonies were there. Lots of comic creators including legends like John Byrne and Mike Zeck.
I was able to get a couple of comic creator autographs to add to my book, and purchased a Captain America print from Mike Zeck. I think this will be my tradition for conventions. Last convention I attended I got a great Captain America print from Mitch Breitweiser.
All in all, a good day, though lessons learned. We'll wait for the kids to be older next time. That just means Jamie and I can go and make a longer day of it until then.
Just a couple of photos to share.

Until next time.
