Renaissance Faire

I took the kids to the Renaissance Faire today and they had a great time. I was surprised when they were so shy when those in costume would speak to the kids. It didn't take long for the them to warm up though. Donny wanted a sword but it took most of the day to find the proper one. I had a very hard time getting him out of the costume and hat shops. He look so cute in many of the hats, so I see a project in my future. Abigail was very picky about what she wanted to bring home. I think she tried on seven hats and didn't care for any of them. On the way to the car, she spotted sparkly bracelets. Everyone had a nice day and I'm really glad I didn't talk myself out of going.

Abigail took a break while Donny tried the bow and arrows.

Donny was so excited when this little boy challenged Donny to a duel.

Donny was very funny because anytime a person in costume walked past us, he would tip his hat.  I took this photo when the "queen" walked out.  He was very serious.

Listening to the "queen" speak.

Abigail was so overcome with happiness, that she would hug us.
