CorldCon was … Continue reading LibertyCon Arrival
A Blast of the past #103: Sword and Shield birthday
This is September 2008, and the year of the sword and shield birthday cake. It was also the year we got the party guests play wooden swords from the Renaissance Festival as party favors. They had a lot of fun with those, both at the party, and in years to come.
