Hello, all my little Noonoos in cyber land. It is Fall! I have proof. Not only have we had the most amazing weather, but we also went to the Ren Fest. Yeah! Tuesday we went to homeschooling day at the Texas Ren Fest. Which is one of the oldest and largest of its kind in the US. It was wonderful. It was high of 70 and sunshine all day. We had spent all Sunday making this wonderful costume for Miss Fae. Brandon spent most of the day making her "Wings" which where basically an arrangement of autum flowers and leaves and feathers on her back. They are amazing. I will put another pic up with more detail. He also made her a crown of flowers and leaves, and I had sewn her costume using organic jersey and cheese cloth. With brown organic homespun wool yarn whip stitched and blanket stitched seems around the edges. She was a truelly magical autum fairy, and everyone there knew it. I don't think she has ever had so much attention paid to her. Everyone wanted to take pictures of her and I think Brandon may have sold a couple of people on buying wings from him. Even the participants where impressed, and god know they have seen some suckie fairies. They even wanted pictures with her. Then when we were walking around she found a fairy sleeping in an cathedral of flowers and vines. They had a long interaction with lots of fairy speak. I think Miss Fae thinks she really met a living fairy. The fairy gave her an acorn that is now her favorite thing in the whole world. We are going to have to go back before it closes in November because we just had the best time ever. We couldn't have asked for a better day. Even the weather co-operated. The pictures all turned out amazing too! Halloween is right around the corner and I know what Miss Fae is going to be.
