Renaissance fair

Bruce and I donated blood and we got free tickets to the Renaissance fair! Bruce had never been before!! I gave him the quick this is what I love here and made him do all those things. When we first got there this lady was shooting marshmallows at us. It was pretty funny. We kept walking and i was telling bruce they always have cool stuff you want to buy we we just look.
Then we found this baby! Its a MARSHMALLOW cannonpulte sp?? It handmade and you stick the marshmallow on it and it will fling long or short distance. We got free amo and could go back for more. We had fun trying to hit people and everyone figure what it was!!!! ( Bruce and i later had a marshmallow fight at the park for FHE! We have the best park cuz they have fake rocks you can climb in under and on top of!!)We only watched one show but it was SOOO FUNNY! it was a pirate show and the best one to show Bruce just how good they are. The shirts they were selling made us want to buy them! The one bruce wanted me to get said on the front with a treasure chest, "Nice chest!" and on the back it said with the treasure chest open, " But the booty is even better!" hahah we thought it was funny!! The other one looked like the state patrol shirt and on he back said "booty patrol" We were out of money so didn't get them. But they were awesome!


I didn't remember this part of the park before. They had a place set up like a village from back then and they were making food and the king and queen came to eat. They had a real blacksmith making stuff. They had a food area where they thought you how to cook. This lady had REAL WOOL and was REALLY spinning it into yarn! IT WAS AWESOME!!! It looked like how they would be living. They had kids running around playing and "parents" yelling at them to do chores. The bowed to the king and served him. It was fun to watch! and I sooo couldn't have lived then!

I told bruce about the wax hands and he was all for it!!! This my all time favorite part!

He liked to doing it. He picke how to have it colored. They now give you a perservation kit so you can fill the mold and if the wax comes off you have like stone hands. Its pretty sweet!!Of course we took him to jousting! While we waited for it to start guess what the kings court was playing?!? Bochee ball sp? The game we play every year at thanksgiving! I thought that was cool! Bruce enjoyed every minute of it! For lunch we all had soup bowls! I had bruce eat a icee on top of an orange and i got a pickle while he ate jerky. Jesscia and Brooke came with but they didn't seem to enjoy it as much as we did!!!
