Renn Fest

I have been so busy working at the bakery that I haven't had much time to do the fun things I so enjoy doing with my family. I fought hard and took a Saturday to go up to MD for the Renn Fest. I have been one other time and it is always a lot of fun. It is a really neat place that has great Renaissance looking buildings that are permanent and great food and activities for everyone.
We arrived and although the day looked gray, we forged on ahead.Upon entering, Jasmine found herself with the Pirate Queen who gave her some treasure (a gold ring) and Jasmine was ecstatic. Then we walked around and found out they were doing a knighting ceremony. Jasmine decided she wanted to be knighted so we stood in line and the king knighted Lady Jasmine "Dame Jasmine of the Realm".They had pony rides, which for Jasmine are always a must and we took in a little jousting as well. Jasmine got to meet one of the knights and Ava took a little nap.Even though by this point it was raining pretty well, we watched an amazing show of a knife swallower. Also, before we left, we caught a bit of a play where the king was acting. It was a very good time and we hope that next time we venture out, the weather cooperates with us!
