Texas Renaissance Festival

 I did not want a big party for my 50th. I just want it to quietly go by. No fanfare, no ticker tape parade. Just let it slip on by. Instead of a party, I thought it would be fun to go to the Texas Ren Faire. The weather was perfect. We've been there when it was pouring down rain. I will not go in the rain, ever again.
 There are people who are paid to be part of the festivities. This one wore a really nice costume.
 There is a huge parade that is lots of fun to watch.
 Must keep things tidy. LOL
These really tall costumes are my favorite. They would be tricky to walk around in. I would fall flat on my face if I were to try it. If I hadn't hurt my toe, I would have dressed up as a fairy. It is so much fun to go dressed up.

Sounds like so much fun. Hope it made your birthday special. I have never been, but my daughter has...she made costumes for herself and her boyfriend at the time and they looked wonderful and had such a great time.

How lovely. I love the Texas Renaissance Festival. I miss Texas so much! Now that I live in Scotland I get excited about anything that reminds me of back home.
