Salt Lake City Comic Con 2014

Last Saturday we had a family outing of epic proportions.  We recruited Aunt Emily so we wouldn't be out numbered, braved the crowds, caught the train to Salt Lake City, and attended Comic Con 2014 at the Salt Palace Convention Center.

One fun part of the day was riding the train to avoid traffic.  The kids thought the train was a whole lot of fun and MayLynn keeps asking when we will get to ride it again.

One of Owen's favorite parts of the day was seeing the LEGO exhibit.  There were thousands and thousands of LEGOs in lots of different scenes.  He also liked seeing R2-D2 and the other robots, and shooting Storm Troopers with Nerf guns.

Mommy even satisfied her inner nerd by getting her picture taken with R2-D2 too.

Daddy's celebrity fix of the day was to pose with film vehicles.  He got pictures with the Dolorian time machine from Back to the Future; Kit, the talking car from Night Rider; and three different Batmobiles. Owen also had his picture taken with a storm chasing radar vehicle.

We also managed to avoid getting eaten by Smaug, the dragon, or getting stepped on by trolls.

River enjoyed herself as well, and spent most of the time asleep.  She did wake up a few times though and enjoyed hanging out with the family and seeing Uncle John & Aunt Liz.  It was a really long day, but the kids hung in there and we all had an amazing time.
