Renaissance festival!

Yesterday we visited the festival near us. Obviously it was a hit with J! He loved the weapons and really tried his hardest to beeeeeeeeeg me to buy him a 'real sword'! He just couldn't understand why I wouldn't do it! No way with that kluztso! We watched the men joust on horseback and then sword fight. Our fellow won the joust, but lost the sword fight. They rode the wooden swings, the wooden barrel (reminds me of those big ships you ride on at the fair that swing back and forth-only this one was on a much smaller scale), and got to shop! Fortunately our tickets enable us to get in free on the weekends and so we're probably going to head out and take Steve with us too. The plays were so funny and the fire-guy...he cracked us up! We all laughed so hard that our faces hurt.

Anyways...here's what you'd like to see!
