I'm pretty excited about Awesome Con this year. It was my first convention in 20 years and it got me hooked on cosplay and found something else for my son and i to do together. I can't wait to participate this year, meeting the groups from RL, Mando mercs and 501st last year at awesome con really convinced me that I could do this.
