1001 Dreams is my Favorite Theme Weekend!!!

As many of you know I blog on Mindsay.  Here's a duplicate of that post.  I went to Ren Fest yesterday!


 




Yeah!  Yesterday was the Second weekend of the Texas Renaissance Festival and the theme was 1001 Dreams.  That is the Fairy weekend.  There are alway fairys, pirates and barbarians at every Fest weekend but 1001 Dreams abounds with fairys.  That is of course my preferred costume (obviously) because I can just go all out and have tons of fun with it.




I took my car and Myclette, Environgirl and her friend M rode with me.  As many of you already know we met up with CallmeRoger and Uykou met us there as well and we all hung out for the day.  I had a great time with all my friends but the day ended too quickly!  RawJah and his lady got there earlier than us but we made it about 11am.  Just in time to catch the Other Brothers show.  I always try to catch them.  They are a juggling act that is always there.  They are funny!  Egirl decided not to wear the sleeves of her costume or the wings but we managed to nail her down for a picture with it all .. we went in...





After that we met up with RawJah and visited.  We saw lots of great costumes, lots of great food and lots of great drinks! LOL!



Everybody flipped out over my eyelashes this year.  They are these great big green feathers.  I had lots of people stop me and want to take a picture with me.  That's pretty unusual for me.  The always want pictures of Egirl and not me. 


PS... wow, I couldn't see anything!  LOL



Here's a great one of Mycki!


and here's RawJah doint his steriotypical asian photographer!  He was super funny.  Everytime anyone asian passed him he would bow and say Moshi Moshi!  It was super Nerdy!  LOL



And isn't ukyou toooo adorable???



They are such a cute couple...




This is a random couple I got to pose for me... Their costumes were awesome.  Aren't her wings super?




AND NOW... I think we all know what time it is now!  Barbarians galore!  Lot's of super cool dudes in super cool costumes...



Here's a rockin' Centuar.




Here's a really cool leather clad warrior.




Rockin' warrior chick on REALLY big horse.




OK... These German guys are funny... (and apparently they could get "lost in there" ALL day!)  LOL


Egirl and Myckie and fun with them too!




I've had one with this Conan style dude before!




Towards the end of the day we went into the Hookah bar and had a little sumthin'!  LOL... Chocolate Mint!





We followed this with a little shopping and Fireworks before heading home.




I'll probably do another picture post with some cute shots.  I thought this was Long enough for now! LOL

Plus-Sized Beauty Queen Stirs Up Controversy



 


http://abcnews.go.com/Health/BeautySecrets/story?



17 year-old Chloe Marshall of Surrey England is stirring up quite the controversy for winning the title of Miss Surrey. At 5’10", Chloe Marshall weighs in at 178 pounds and wears a size 16. Many people are outraged and saying her win is promoting an unhealthy lifestyle. Because of her win in the Miss Surrey pageant, she is now eligible to compete in the Miss England pageant.



One columnist and former Miss England judge was quoted as saying,




 "Who does she think she’s kidding?"


 "What she’s demonstrating isn’t bravery but a shocking lack of self-control," she wrote. "Instead of flaunting her figure, Chloe ought to own up to the truth. She is fat and she got that way by over-eating."



Are beauty pageants only for thin women?  Isn’t beauty subjective? What about the accusations of promoting an unhealthy lifestyle?
