7th Anniversary at the Renaissance Festival

This year for our anniversary we went to the Texas Renaissance Festival.  It is where we spent our first anniversary, and we had such a good time that we always talked about going back.

We took Levi with us, and he loved it.  His favorite part of the "Birds of Prey" show were the owls.  He kept saying "more owl, more owl"

The first show we went to was a family circus.  It was a perfect start for the day with Levi at the festival.

My two guys having fun playing with the swords.

Almost anytime there was music playing, Levi was dancing to it.

This is always cool to watch.

Here is my last video, the whip master at work.

We crossed the finish line!

If you remember I had posted a while back about Matt and I training for a half marathon.  On September 29 we joined Matt's family in Utah and ran the Layton Half Marathon.  We were the last of our family to finish, but I am proud to say that we did finish.  We finished the 13 miles in 3 1/2 hours.  Here is a picture of everyone who did the half marathon just before the race (other family members ran the 10 k and 5 k).

And here are some links to photos of Matt and I from the official race web site.  The first 2 were taken towards the beginning of the race (within the first few miles).  The rest are of us crossing the finish line.
