Renaissance Women

Every year, without fail.
My Renaissance girls head to the Renaissance festival.
All garbed in their finery.
Hand-made by the Renaissance girl herself (on the right).
Many times created without a pattern (how does she do that?).
They're off to a land long ago.
To eat large turkey drumsticks.
And watch the jousters.
And pretend they're princesses.
And practice their English accents.

I have never been . . . they make it look like tons of fun! I had no idea that they enjoyed that.

Beautiful dresses...would they consider making some in little girls' sizes?? They could make a pretty penny doing that!

How fun for them! We've gone once but it's been years. If I could find me some free or cheapo tickets I'd take the kids!
