Welcome back readers! I am really proud to introduce an amazing group today. This is the Goombah Squad, a family that cosplays and crafts together. Trena and Johny, the parents, are an amazingly talented couple. Trena does most of the sewing and Johny is in charge of prop work. Their first family cosplay was from the Harry Potter series for Halloween. From there their love of creating and crafting grew. Shelly, Felicia, and Braiden all enjoy making the costumes as well as wearing them with their parents. The Goombah Squad uses cosplay to bring their family closer together, even when the projects get overwhelming. They work together as a team and as a loving family to be their very best. The Goombah Squad! Felicia, Shelly, Johny, Braiden, and Trena all dressed as Final Fantasy X characters. Trena won 1st place Beginner's craftsmanship and Johny received an award for his props at Anime Banzai 2013. The whole group was awarded Best in Show. Photo by Doors of Imagination Photo
