Renaissance & Going-Away

Today we met with  my family in Waynesville, for a day trip to the Renaissance Festival!

Photo blast in 3... 2... GO!

Back on solid ground: 
queeeen for the day! 
the king & queen of our family ♥
took a moment to share the love with my pops
SKY SWINGS!
They've been peddlin' these things at the RT since I was a kid.. and I still don't have one.. haha.
gosh.. these two ♥♥♥ and then some more ♥♥♥.
How to tell if the day was a success? 
[before we even got out of the grounds parking] 
I'm so glad we were able to attend the RT for the first time with Syd and Rob! It looks like there will be many more memories each year at these; with any luck, my mom & sister will have coerced me into dressing up next year, so there's that... I guess stay tuned ;)

The day didn't end with the RT; I was in the shower and transformed into dinner date material as soon as our boots hit the homestead. Brittany's final going-away dinner was at Via Vite; I rendezvoused with the gang.
miss you, kp!
Dinner was great, and I got a few hours of hangtime in with Kalyn, who for obvious reason I rarely see anymore :(. SO glad to catch up with everyone, and congrats Brittany!! Have a BLAST in South Carolina!

Okay so that was the end of the night. I had tentatively planned to make an appearance wherever Jessica and Cassie landed after the wedding they'd attended, but by the time dinner was out, I voted to throw in the towel and get back to my little family.

Phew.
Goooodnight!
