Old Fashion Day Picnic

Our church has an annual Old Fashion Day w/ a different theme every year. This year's theme was the Renaissance/Medieval era. I already had a dress from a banquet that I had to play & sing in at school but my mom had to come up w/ costumes for the rest of the family. For the boys is was easy, we just went & bought armour & for my dad my mom just made him a crusader "cape" to wear over his chain-mail. So my mom just had to make the lil girl's costumes. I think they turned out really cute!


Our family minus my mom who didn't make anything for herself (because it would just get in the way while she cooks, yep nice excuse :P :)

William trying out his armour w/ dad's chain-mail.



Daniel trying to look cool while trying out his armour.


William at the picnic showing off his costume :)



Hannah & Charity- aren't their outfits soooo cute!




Hannah w/ her "Pony Pals" Krista & Brooke.




Don't mess w/ this lil girl; she's takin' on two twice her size ;)




We had some games & activities trying to keep w/ the theme. Well, I think tug-of-war counts.




HaHa, got a pic of mom anyways- for those of you who dont know she hates getting her pic taken so it is a challenge to get one. :)




Charity (w/ her buddy helpin') hittin' the terradactyl pinata.




What get together is complete w/ out a good time of fellowship among friends.




Now here is the reason why you dont see any pics of me. (Yes, I know they probably didn't have any sunglasses in the old days but the Texas sun is just too bright ;)



And of course anytime you combine boys, outside, sunshine, and a field- you get a football game :)




Charity & her Buddy- Mr Hamelund.




Just another pic of our family together to end off this post.
