Renaissance Festival
We went to the Renaissance festival again this year, as last year's was such a blast! Unfortunately Josh couldn't come as he was helping with relief effosrt for the people that had been affected by the tornadoes.
So we drove over, having everything and everyone packed into the car, including snacks, drinks, stroller, baby bjorn, diapers etc......... But.... ofcourse mom forgot something: Jasper's shoes. So as a 'brilliant' solution, I just put an old pair of Lilian's socks on him, so he could walk around in the grass and dirt and gravel... socks that were way too big, with flowers, and holes in them so his toes were sticking through... very charming. I was glad I didn't run into anyone I knew!!! Bad mommy! Jasper fortunately could care less and had a blast, as did the rest of us: jousting, acrobats, learning to juggle, silly comedy/tricks, a turkey leg and 1/2 yard long hotdog on a stick and even macaroni and cheese on a stick. As a very special treat, Sofia was her very spontaneous self, and she got to do some Irish/Scottish dance with the performers there. She was a little shy, but they were very nice and let her dance with them for a while during the performance. She did great, and I was extremely proud of her for daring to do that, I would have been scared to death. She got a great round of applause and felt really good about it all. She should! Way to go Fietje! We all really enjoyed it once again and we stayed from start to end.
Photos will come soon
