My First Trip to Comic Con San Diego

I had the great pleasure of going to San Diego Comic Con last minute. My hubby's good friend was able to get us tickets so we could go for one day. I had a blast, it was exciting looking around and seeing so many different things. At one end of the convention you have the artist alley, at the other end you have all the vendors and in the middle you have all the movie displays that are coming out next year. We saw so much my eyes were not able to take in everything. We had our son for the event and he was really well behaved, however, the people there would walk all over your child. I found myself almost punching a couple of people for not noticing where they were walking and almost walking all over my child. We did not have a stroller with us due to the move and had to carry him through most of the convention. We actually had to avoid the movie display for the most part because that's where most people where concentrated. On top of that my sister just told me that next year they wont be allowing strollers in the convention center. However, my lil monster will be turning three and he will have a lot more fun next year. We saw a couple of awesome customes at the convention.




The most exciting part for me of the day was seeing Nathan Fillion from Firefly and Castle! His line to get an autograph was huge and I was not able to get in it. It will have to wait till next time but it was great seeing him. He was sitting in the Iron Man 3 display, I am still wondering why? Maybe he will be in it... or not. 


We also saw the Walking Dead TV display and took some pictures. My sister is a fan of the show and we could not help but show off just a little, hehe. 



We also stopped by the Hobbit display,which was almost close to impossible to get near. It was so crowded it was hard to get any pictures. My lil monster was scared of Gollum, he was trembling in my arms when we were trying to take a picture with Gollum because he looked that real! I can't wait till the hobbit comes out in theaters it should be a fantastic movie. 



We had a blast at the con and now I know why people need multiple days to go to the San Diego Comic Con.  
I am still in the process of moving into our apartment, we have been living in a hotel almost a week and it has not been fun. We have been under a lot of stress and very little sleep. Our little one does not sleep the entire night and then sneaks into our bed at night and our puppy hates being stuck in the hotel. Soon we will be in our new home and the excitement of making our new apartment feel like a home begins. I already have ideas for the decor.

Till Later!
