Renaissance Festival

The twins got to take their first trip to the Colorado Renaissance Festival in Larkspur. It was a nice cool, albeit slightly drizzly day, which I appreciated. I did not appreciate the 15 minute hail storm with the mad scramble by everyone present for the little bits of shelter that could be found in the little shops. For a moment I didn't think we would find a shop with any space left for our massively over-sized stroller, but finally we found a poor little shop that apparently nobody liked. So all turned out well.

Teagan and Wesley both enjoyed the festival a great deal, at least at the few times they decided to be awake. They weren't even woken by dad's grunts and groans as he tried to maneuver 30 pounds or so of baby and stroller up cliffs on dirt paths. I was sore for a while after, but had a great deal of fun none-the-less. The only down side of the festival was that, due to the constant drizzle, we were reluctant to take the twins out of their dry, comfortable stroller to take pictures. We did get a few toward the end though - mostly with an animatronic pirate.
The only souvenir we could really find that worked for infants were these towels that transform the twins into Dragon Babies.





And, finally, here is the photo that shows just why babies scream in the bath-tub.


Ga-Ga-Ga-GHOST!?!
