So, I realized that I didn't get a photo of Hope and I together with Hello Kitty so we went back for day 2. We also wanted to bring my pal Tressa and her son Xaveir, who happens to be a Hello Kitty fan, to go see her.

Here are a few more photos of the Sanrio Cafe that opened. There are some yummy looking desserts. We didn't try any, but will probably head back for some soon.

How fitting that the one hundredth (100!!) photo of my 365 project is the one where we got to meet Hello Kitty IN PERSON! It's divine intervention and was completely unplanned.

She didn't say much but boy was she cute! She posed for pictures and did all sorts of cute things...loved it!

It was a LOT of fun to be there at our local Sanrio store as they did a grand re-opening and the opening of a Sanrio Cafe right next door.

I really like the effect this glass has on Hello Kitty - makes her look a bit trippy, don't you think? Have a great weekend everyone. I have a feeling I'm going to be pooped when all is said and done...

So, I think I have a good idea but the execution leaves a bit to be desired. You'll probably see this shot again, but hopefully better as I work out some of my 'creative vision' :)

My finger is feeling a bit better today (thanks so much for those of you that inquired :). I still have the band-aid on but it'll probably come off tomorrow.

Hello Kitty decided to turn the tables on me a bit. I didn't have the heart to tell her that her camera isn't real....

I know I've done a band-aid one before but I HAD to post this one today. I got a horrible cardboard (yes from cardboard!) paper-cut yesterday and I haven't been able to take the band-aid off. The only thing making it slightly better is the HK band-aid!

So, a trip to our new and improved Sanrio store proved to be quite prosperous for Hope. I picked up this darling pair of HK earrings for Hope that are a bit more her size than ones previously bought.

The good news? We will get to meet Hello Kitty in PERSON this weekend.

I had to grab a pic of the earrings while she was sleeping. I'm pretty impressed with the way my camera handled an ISO of 2200 :)
