This weekend we went to a Renaissance Fair in Maryland with the kids and Ryan's parents. We've been hearing about it and it was GREAT!! Can you believe they even had jousting?!?
These are the fair maids who gave us a map of the grounds. The one in the peach dress even helped us find a few places and helped in the knighting of our kids
No fair would be complete without face paint!
The knighting ceremony. The Lady Mary dubbed the children knights for doing a goodly deed. They were so excited!! Caellum even got up to do this without our help. They got certificates declaring them official knights of the realm. Javin is so excited to be a knight but Cael wondered where his outfit was.
At one of the children's plays they asked for volunteers. OF course Javin volunteered. They had all of the kids yell as loud as they could and then picked the loudest two girls and boys. Javin wasn't the loudest and was extremely sad, (of course crying) but the Hero of the show George, decided that he didn't want to rescue a princess so the crew member said he'd take the first hand he saw to be the replacement and to every ones excitement Javin is extremely fast. He got to be the HERO and he was amazing. The play masters even had to step in because Javin really knows how to fight with a sword and could have taken the dragon out. He did an excellent job and was super excited. This was the best part of the day for me. I love how excited Javin gets for everything and he loves to be the center of attention.
As always good things must come to an end but I have to say if we are still here next year this will definitely be a repeat event.

Sounds like so much fun!! I was laughing so hard about Javin really almost hurting the dragon, and Cael going up just to get the Knight outfit. Cute Kids!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! That fair sounds AMAZING! And how fun is that--I love when my kids get picked for stuff--so good job for Javin for not giving up...sad and everything he pulled through under pressure. Loved the pics! How fun!!!
