#FanExpoCan 2016
The Fan Expo held here in Toronto is another yearly tradition that we do every year since 2012. It's always a great time to let our geekiness come out in full force!
What happened this year:
I swear...the place gets more packed as the years go by!
Building is always serious business!
This pic below is really blurry but I'm including it here coz this Kylo Ren was really in character and thus, cool:D
There were so many awesome handmade stuff in the Artist Alley....
We were in the Lego section a lot...just saying....
Our Ash Ketchum was getting tired....
We were walking alongside awesome characters like the ones below:
Met another Ash:D
Even outside, there were lots to see!
And finally, going home...we were all pooped.
Since no celeb stuff this year for me, I bought some merchandise instead (thanks, hubby).
What happened this year:
1) My middle child actually dressed up! I sewed a dress for myself to wear, but it was only him who was actually in costume (as Ash Ketchum). I knitted for him last year the vest and gloves, and the hat was a last minute sewing project.
2) No photo op or autograph session for me this year. The timing for the celebs I wanted to have pics with (ie. John Cusack, Christopher Lloyd) were kinda late, and the lineup for autographs were insane! Well, there's always next year.
3) These were the most popular costumes we saw: Harley Quinn (as in, almost every other girl was dressed as her!), Kylo Ren and Rey, Pokémon characters, and Marvel superheroes.

Without further ado, here are the pics:)
On the subway en route...
As usual, we didn't take the youngest coz she's still too young (IMO) and would've found some stuff there too scary. |

This dress is one of the things I've made I really love. (Pattern is the Anna Dress by By Hand London.) |
It's always crazy pic time! |

Do you go to comic cons/fan expos?
Anyhoo, Happy Labour Day to everyone in North America! School starts for the kiddos tomorrow...sigh....

I watched the first tow episodes of Jealousy Incarnate and wasn't sold on it. It's a bit of a hot mess and there are too many characters. If I wanted to watch something with a million characters, I watch a family drama haha. Also I think they went a little overboard with the way Gong Hyo Jin was touching Jo Jung Suk's character in the first ep that it was inappropriate. Will you watch it? We watched Fantastic over the weekend and it's off to a somewhat promising start. I always like a good womance.
Did I miss pics of your little princess?...:-) Have a great week.
