So we went to the Renaissance Festival today and well we weren't to impressed! I had went to the one in Maryland numerous times and let's just say the one in Maryland is more "proper". This was a skankier form of the Renaissance Festival I remember. We didn't see much Renaissance, we saw alot of goth, fairies, elves, monsters...literally, thongs bikinis (not making this up) and witches but not much Renaissance. It was more along the lines of a freak fest but there is some fun in that also! We spent most of the day in awe of what we were seeing and laughing. We were among great company though (my sister and her family are in town) so that did brighten the day! Oh and the fried shrimp (and food in general) there was FABULOUS!!! That alone was worth the $21 a person admission fee! And that's another grip, you pay $21 per person and once you get in the door you have to pay for everything (and everything is way overpriced)! The only thing the admission covered was the shows...B.S. if you ask me! If I'm paying that much, the kids rides should at least be included! I'll probably go back next year and give it another try...maybe we just went on a bad day.
On the way home I got pulled over by a cop (probably the most exciting event of the day)! It was dusk and I didn't have my lights on...he was super nice and just gave me a friendly reminder but it gave us a good scare for a minute.
As I said above we are really enjoying my sisters visit! Mikayla fits right in with our kids, they seriously have the same dispositions and Mikayla and Allie have the exact same cries! I can ALWAYS tell my kids cries from other kids cries (if your a mom you know what I mean) but they sound EXACTLY alike...it's crazy! I'll have to take a video of them crying at the same time so you can see what I mean. Posting some pics., didn't take to many, can you believe that? There was so much craziness I didn't know what to take a picture of! I have never had that problem before!!! Be back tomorrow! I'm 8 for 8 the month of November, I hope I can keep it up!

FUN! I mean, yeah that does sound a bit strange, and not much like I would expect a renaissance festival to be like, but I bet you all got lots of good laughs in! Love the pics! Love the one of all the kids and you, Kristy & Cindy.
