Today we went to the Renaissance Festival. The place was huge! It was lots of fun.

We watched a little Jousting.

Jacob's Ladder

So the point is to keep your balance and climb to the top and ring the bell. Grown people can't even do this so Curtis just held the ladder for her. She wasn't tall enough to reach the bell so when Curtis let it go we figured she'd fall in the hay, but she just kept holding on like a little monkey. She got some laughs. =)

Playing games

Guilty!

Daddy got home today! And we went to the Frederick County fair. Busy day!

Rides!

The cute one got a puppy and rainbow painted on her face. The big dorky one got two glitter tattoos. Hehe

It was an eventful evening in Gwen's room.

She got a new good behavior chart. Once she fills it up with stickers she'll earn a special prize. Haven't decided what yet.

Then she decided she wanted to cook for me.

She made me tea, but said I couldn't drink it yet because it was too hot. She blew on it for me. =)

Rory got tea too. She picked the cup up with her teeth and took off down the hall with Gwen running after her yelling, "Hey, bring that back bad RoRo!"

Then Binx and Rory had a throw down... It's hard to tell from just the pictures, but it was kinda epic.

A typical school day conversation.

Gwen: Ok Momma, let's go to school!
Me: School doesn't start for an hour Gwen.

Gwen: Please Mom! Let's go to school now.
Me: Child, you're not listening, school doesn't start for a whole hour.

Gwen: Ahh come on!
Me: (Decides to ignore her)

20 seconds later
Gwen: Ok Momma, time for school now!
Me: (sigh) Gwen, I know you're ready to go, but that doesn't mean you need to go an hour early. I will let you know when it's time.

Gwen: Ahhhhhh man!
