Renisance Festival

Labor Day Weekend we were going to go camping with some friends a couple hours away, but as it got close the the weekend, the weather didn't look good down there. It was going to be raining all weekend, so we decided to stay home. We still wanted to do something fun, so we found out the Renaissance Fest was in town and it was Pirate weekend. So we decided to dress up as pirates and go.

and pet an elephant.

Then we had dinner.
Our friends Adam and Melinda eating a turkey leg.

The boys had a very healthy dinner of ice cream and cookies.

Ephraim had a brownie sunday.

Our last stop on the way out was this swing. The boys really like this.




We had a great time and have some good memories. I think we are going to do it every year, and make even better costumes.
