National Talk Like a Pirate Day - 2009

Grr, matey!

Today is national Talk Like a Pirate Day ! Dave, Grandma Nikki, AJ (Aunt Jessica), Edwin and I celebrated by attending the 2009 Renaissance Festival Pirates Weekend.




Edwin was the cutest pirate at the festival - no contest!!!




The Jester let Edwin see his Ball Wand, which Edwin promptly called "ball!"


A belly dancer tried to lure Edwin in - he wanted nothing to do with her, but he did show off some of his dance moves for the crowd...many of which took pictures of him!



AJ and Edwin watching the Mudde Show - Edwin wasn't too interested in sitting for the show!







Remember the picture from last year's trip to the Renaissance Festival?



Edwin liked helping Dave push the stroller - he doesn't like to ride much anymore...



Why is Edwin so sad?



He wanted to meet the monk and the Wench.



Edwin ate a King's Wiener (large sausage dog on a stick) as we watched the Washing Well Wenches perform. Child appropriate? Probably not, will have to rethink this for next year!



Edwin's souvenir - a wooden sword...that should provide some fun in the coming weeks.



Another successful trip to the Renaissance Festival and the first of many Talk Like a Pirate Day celebrations for our family!!!



Time to go home!
