A Faire Affair...

Saturday Seth and I headed down to the Ohio Renaissance Festival once again. This is what that looked like.
Seth starting the day.

Me at the start of the day. 

Seth shows off a heavy toy... Solid steel Thor's Hammer. 

Getting a tribal bat Henna tattoo. 

Her yarn dreads were amazing. 

The mayor (my friend Chuck) leads the parade.



The village peasants.

These ladies are getting a wild ride. 

Pirates!! 





The Naughty Navels on parade. 



The merchant class and nobility

More nobility

God Save the Queen!! 


A gorgeous faery costume in the pub. 

Seth biting off more than he can chew

The Wenches a Wailing calling for a toast

The Wenches a Wailing

More of the Wenches

Amazing Satyr costume

Those legs were amazing

Me after several hours at faire. Add my henna, a rose in my bodice and a brand new skirt. 
We had a great time again. This is unfortunately going to be our final weekend down, as we are having our Halloween party next weekend which is the closing weekend. It was a great season though.

So welcome to my party. Grab a butterbeer ( Killian's Irish red with a shot of butterscotch shnapps) and enjoy. Welcome to our home.  A barrage of bats on our stairway wall.  Your illustrious host. I'm a saloon girl. Could you tell?  The back of me.  Charlene (Goddess), Chelsea and Rachel (Bee) watch me give Bobbi and tarot reading.  Amanda, Mike and Chris...just hanging out.  Charlene and Rachel still watching me do readings... I did a lot of them.  Andrew and Amanda haunting the food tables.  Look at me giving readings.  Our pumpkin chunking platform. Essentially we attack pumpkins with weapons.  Seth lining up a pumpkin for destruction.  Wow... those are some dead pumpkins.  Axes a...
