Renaissance Festival
After many attempts to go to Ren Fest this year, today we actually got there.
We were so excited for Sydney to walk around wearing her little fairy wings, but it was so muddy we left her in the stroller most of the afternoon.
There was this great little kids area, the Enchanted Realm, where she could be a kid & run around. Here she is on the dragon bridge totally "enchanted" by the bagpipe band playing just outside.
There was a magic frog, a dragon, and a black cat and she totally freaked out when she saw them. She even used the word "awesome" while she was running around. Seriously, "awesome"! She'll repeat almost anything these days, so we really have to watch our tongue!
Here's the wizard that tested Sydney's magic wand. She was hesitant to go in by herself, so I went in with her. She got so shy, she wouldn't say "hocus pocus", so I had to say it for her to get the magic started. Then this poof of air sprays out of the tree stump & he declares that her wand is working.
We never take picts together. Maybe in a year or two Syd will be able to work the camera. Until then, we're left to these self portraits that are off center, and we're trying to squeeze in while looking down & making a double chin. I won't be blowing this up to a 11x14 and framing it for the living room, but it will have to do for now.

Little Mermaid
Lovin' the XXL pickle! I guess this is a Ren Fest tradition, since she loved it last year too.
Tricky, tricky. She pretends to share, and then she snatches the pickle back & giggles.
We were all impressed by the artful fountains. Syd really wanted to get out & splash in the water, but there was just too much mud.
Another cutie fairy!

That festival looks like fun, we've never been. Brynn would love the giant pickles too. We need to get the girls together and go to the pumpkin patch. Let me know if you have a morning off and we'll go. They'll have a lot more fun this year.
