Trekkies... in costume!!

We had quite a whirlwind of activity the past few days- we left for Denver on Wednesday night and by Friday we were in Tulsa. The Denver trip was last minute and unexpected. Mike's grandmother passed away. :( She was an amazing lady and we loved her dearly. I have a separate post planned that will be dedicated to her. Our Tulsa trip has been in the works for a while- Trek Expo!! Yes, we go to a Star Trek convention. I have to admit the first year he had to drag me kicking and screaming, now I keep track of the date and the guests they add all year long- I'm hooked!! My husband has definitely allowed me to embrace my inner geek and I love it.

One of the best parts of the con are all the costumes! Here are some from this weekend:

Princess Leia in the slave costume and a jedi:

President Laura Rosslin & Kara Thrace aka Starbuck from BSG

a jedi, Darth Vader, and a stormtrooper

"Q" from Star Trek

one of the many Captain Kirk's


Borgs and a stormtrooper


some trekkies and a tribble!
