..hear ye, hear ye, lords and ladies..

Every year at the end of October, our city turns our downtown park into 16th century medieval Europe for the Renaissance Faire. It's so much fun! Vendors come and set up booths, food mongers sell giant roasted turkey legs, and there's this one blue troll that will sneak around and put things in your pockets when you least expect it. Mom and I went Saturday.

This little pink fairy was just too cute. I told her that her candy looked like a pink fairy wand :)



And of course, there are belly dancers. Look, she has a tail!! :D



This guy was playing water glasses. He was so good, he was taking requests :D



Here we have the cutest little pirate ever. He was making some pretty big bubbles.



And this big, scary knight would walk around, hammer in hand.. I kept daring mom to go open his helmet :D



And here is me and my momma.. in matching shirts. Totally unplanned, that's just how cool we are :D We were covered in powdered sugar from that funnel cake, but man was it good.



It was a really fun day. I came home with a big bag of roasted peanuts. It's one of the reasons I go every year :)

Now I'm going to see if I can get J to take me to the pumpkin patch. 6 days until Halloween, and we still haven't carved a jack-o-lantern, can you believe it?!

Peace, love and koala fuzz y'all!
