Huggable Aj plush by http://klplushies.deviantart.com/
What really drew me to this cutie was the pose. I'm always looking for something different, and this plush pattern caught my eye. Most plushies feature ponies in standing/sitting poses on hooves, this one you can actually pick up and snuggle a lot easier.
Also featured in this pic is a tiny sleeping AJ, though I forgot the artist who made her.

Several prints/posters. Couple in there by Andy Price and Jenn Blake, two of my favorite IDW artists.

"No Horseplay" playmat from Enterplay. I needed another mousepad. Also got a kick out of the sunburnt Luna in the background. That sticker is of Mane Event, one of Bronycon's mascots.
And picked up a complete collection of Enterplay's new Equestrian Friends card set. They're only available at Dollar Tree stores, conventions and "soon" at Enterplay's own store. So I was glad to find them at Bronycon.

Probably the most important thing I took away from Bronycon was memories. Spending time with friends and being a part of a positive and exciting environment. Icing in the cake was the then con chair delivering a moving speech about paying it forward during closing ceremonies, shortly after stepping down as con chair, and half of the audience tearing up. Something about this whole experience leaving a mark on me. One of those experiences I'll treasure for a very long time.

It looks like you had an awesome time. Thanks so much for sharing pics with those of us who weren't lucky enough to attend.  I'm glad you had such a positive experience to look back on

I wanted to get a plush like that big AJ, but by the time I made up my mind about it, all of the princesses sold out. I saw that guy's plushes everywhere. I  even had a friend of mine end up passing on one of his grails, a G1 Nightglider, because he spent it on a RD plush like that.

I know if I go to the Grand Brony Gala next month, I'll be going to his booth first thing and getting a Cadance or Celestia plush.

That AJ plushie is absolutely adorable!! Big congrats on your new additions.

My roommate brought a bottle of Applejack with him, so I naturally had to take this picture:

Also forgot to mention that I found a Cheese Sandwich autograph card from those golden boxes Enterplay was selling. Makes four out of ten I think, of the series 3 autograph cards. Not going for a complete set of them considering they tend to go for over $100 each on Ebay

I didn't go to the bar trot this year, decided to spend that extra money on seafood. I live in middle Tennessee, we don't get a lot of good seafood here, so I splurge every time I'm in Baltimore. My friends and I went to the Rusty Scupper, which is on the end of the inner harbor, past where all the tour boats normally dock. I spent about $70 on crab soup, crab cakes and lobster, and enjoyed every bit of it. The Rusty Scupper is a bit on the pricey side, but still reasonable for a higher end seafood restaurant. They've an all you can eat buffet deal on Sundays, and normal menus for the rest of the week.

Awesome. I would really like to meet Jenn Blake again. I've never met Andy Price, but hope to eventually. :-)

Sounds like you had a great time! Congrats.
