This weekend was a real hodge-podge of events.
Saturday the kids had soccer and cheer, but I was on, what felt to be, my deathbed. I've been fighting a cold for a couple weeks and it had just about won the battle. Luckily, after my wonderful husband took the kids to their games, he came home, then turned right around and took me to the doctors.
Sunday I was feeling better (not sure if it was the first round of antibiotics, some much needed rest, or just the need to get out of the house,) but we decided to check out the Texas Renaissance Festival with some friends.
While the advertisements say 'fun for the whole family', it seem to specifically cater to the dads.
I swear I saw more boobs hanging out than in a Motley Crue Video.
(you'll have to enlarge the photo above to get a better idea of what I'm talking about)
We got there in time to see the parade of freaks . . .I mean characters.(which, by the way, was the only free thing to do there!)
Then went off to enjoy the sights and festivities.
Chloe loved seeing lots of fairies and maidens wandering about(it was Pirate's weekend, hence Chloe's attire)
There were a few rides for the kids.
Although, since Craig and I are dead set against taking out a second mortgage, they only got to ride two.
But they didn't seem to mind.
Chloe and Logan really loved this bridge in the "Magic Garden". Which turned out to be just a really long ass walk around a drainage creek.
Logan and AJ LOVED the jousting and swords everyone had.
They, of course, had to get some of their own.
(Stay tuned for my next post entitled "Our trip to the ER"
And after all the fun was had and all the money was spent, we headed out.Notice Chloe's tail? Apparently they all the rage right now...
Why? I have no idea.
I'm sure you'd never guess it from all my comments. But we actually had a great time.
We may even go back (bringing our own food and drinks, of course!) to check out more shows.
Who knows . . .I just may need to get one of those tails myself!
And now for the traditional ending photo . . .
Yep, a good day.
