Origins

I didn't get a chance to take a lot of pictures from Origins, things were hectic to say the least.
Origins is one of the shows Nigel loves to take his kids to since it's a huge gaming show. The kids love it and enjoy both the hotel pool and going to different gaming platforms throughout the day. On top of it it falls on Xavier's birthday which is quite perfect.
Well it being Xavier's 13th birthday things did not go quite as planned, the day of his birthday he managed to slip on some slick marble and cut his hand on the bottle that he was holding. Nigel spent the day at the hospital with him and we both spent the night there as well. In the morning Xavier was released and he was able to have quite a bit of fun for the rest of the week-end even with his arm immobilized.
We did have a very good week-end and had quite a great time with the art show staff who were great throughout the whole thing and put up with us running around like chicken with their heads cut off.
Am excited about maybe at some point having enough money to get originals from a few of the artists that I've met at the show... we'll see.
