Renaissance Faire note

We went to the Amana Colony Renaissance Faire today, and I took SO much pictures that I will have to probably put a link to an online album, but since we got home a little late, I only downloaded the file to my hard drive, I will have to touch up and I will put them online ASAP, please just be patient with me as I have to go to work tomorrow morning. I’ll try to do it later when I get home…
I was SO much fun though, we were talking Damien and I this afternoon and we agreed on the fact that we must have lived during the renaissance era in a past life (if such life were) cause he love the sword and the history of fighting and really want to learn swords fighting. I on the other end just love the dress and the corset (as long as it isn’t on me, mind you!) ;0)
So this was just to let everyone know that it is coming and soon. I will probably give you a little story about what we saw and then… link the pictures!
As I say, just be patient!! Love you all and enjoy your Memorial Day!!

Amana Colonie

This afternoon while seating enjoying the quit of the house (on a Saturday afternoon, believe me this is a first) Matt asked me if I would like to go to the Amana colonies just West of where we live.

I said sure as long as we don’t take the kids, I am all for it! ;-) So after getting ready, we told the kids who were playing at our neighbor’s house Fable 2 (much more important than going to a walk with Mom and Dad!) Anyway… we drove there it was a beautiful sunny fall day, around 55 or so, breezy but Gorgeous!

For those of you who aren’t familiar to the Amana colonies, it is a bunch of historical villag

e founded by the German (still German speaking people down there) as most of the historical area in the US it is mainly a tourist attraction where people can buy lots of souv

enir and other knick knack and paying big money for it, but.. it is a very cute little village, and since Fall was in season, I thought It could be cool to take some pictures too! So here are some for you toenjoy.

That little sign is for you Diane, you know why right? ;-)

Matt posed for me as we were ready to go back to the car, and I thought it was a perfect picture of him!
