Today I took my "little sister" (for those of you who don't know, I'm a BIG for Big Brothers Big Sisters) to the Renaissance Festival here in town. It wasn't quite like what I remember going to in high school but was still fun and she had a good time. We walked around looking at renaissance-ish things, smelled turkey legs, she got her face painted, we watched a sword fight, and she even found her a couple of beaded ear cuffs to buy. Ooh - AND she got to participate in the jester's magic show. She got to "cut" a poor soul's had off. =)

We did some other fun things this weekend too but more on that later. For now, here's some pics of the festival.
