All Hail to Queen Kristina

Photobucket

This morning my school, Maeser Prep, put on a Renaissance Faire for the fun of it. They had all kinds of booths set up with games, food, and other vendors, not too mention everyone very heartily dressed up and played the part. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves despite the cold and wet drizzle. Fortunately is has warmed up a bit since then.

Well, lucky me, I got to be involved. The school decided to vote a male and female teacher to be the King and Queen of the Faire. Well, my students like me so much that I got voted in. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. Maybe they just wanted to see me dressed up like a fair maiden. Oh wait, rather fair Queen! Ha! No, it was super fun. I went to the Hale Center Theater and got to pick out my own dress. I did pretty good eh? So we got to start off the Faire by marching in a procession with bagpipes and annouce the beginning of the festivities. Afterwards I ran into this cool dude dressed as a knight. My knight in shining armor! Haha! It was fun! Sorry, my hair is a bit nasty....that's what the rain does to it!

Ah, thanks for the explanation. When you sent me that picture this morning I was wondering if that was the dress you guys picked out for Sonya's wedding ;)
