My boys and I went to the Raleigh Supercon yesterday. It was the first major convention for me*, and the first any convention for them. Since my 51st birthday was last week, this was my choice of “party”.

I took some pics of the Overwatch cosplayers (taken just spur of the moment with my phone):

*I’ve been to a few local comic book and gaming conventions (couple hundred people) some decades ago.

I came across this A-Team van in the local Target parking lot. Just as I took out my phone to photograph it, the owner walked up with his two young sons. I talked with the owner for a minute, and he told me he put this together himself. It’s pretty cool.

My Calfgrits and I were out hiking and came across some Pokemon.

Little…

and big…

Calfgrit11 is graduating from elementary school today. He’ll start middle school next month. We went to the middle school open house a week ago, and Calfgrit15 took the lead to show his little brother around the school.

It was a sweet bonding moment for them. It was just coincidence that they happened to wear the same colors that day.
