Renassance Fair

On Monday, we went with our homeschool co-op to a Renassance Fair. We have been studying Medieval Times in our writing group so we thought this would be alot of fun! When I woke up Monday morning, I wasn't sure how this was going to turn out because it looked like it was going to rain all day...soo cloudy and windy. It was a bit more muddy than we would have liked but it was alot of fun and it didn't rain! They got to see all kinds of different things from that period in history. Sword fighting, jousting, a blacksmith, jewelry and food! The jousting was probably the hit from the day. We got to hang out with some great friends and see some neat stuff!

It was definately a great field trip for all of us!!

What I'm Loving Wednesday

Linking up with Jaime for What I'm Loving Wednesday

I. I am totally loving this spring weather. It has been incredibly nice(68-75F) here for over a week. 

2. I'm loving that our kids have been able to go outside and play. They are getting a ton of energy out and makes for less arguments that I have to break up.

3. I'm loving that all the spring/summer clothes are out. No more layers!!!

4. I'm loving that my hubby goes to work everyday and works hard so that I can stay home and homeschool our kids. He is the bestest!!
