The Friday after Thanksgiving (the dreaded Black Friday, which was actually quite nice as I ordered stuff online at great deals) I got up and drove to Conroe to see B and Spacie. As I had about three hours of sleep before getting there, I spent Friday evening napping on their couch, and then we watched a couple of movies and eating left over Thanksgiving diner (after B got home from work) before hitting the sack.

Because on Saturday, we got up and went to the Texas Renaissance Faire.

It happens every year, and it is HUGE. There were SO many shops, and so many people in costume. They even have gardens with sculptures and flowers. Very pretty. AND, because it was the last weekend, there were TONS of deals to be found (so I did some Christmas shopping).

Here are some photos. The first is the Ent that met everyone just inside the gates:

And then we had a Queen:

A Centaur:

An Orc:

A barbarian (who was very nice and happy to sit for this photo):

The Faerie Court (I had a better shot of them but B stepped into right as I clicked it.. 🙂 ):

And so many more, but if I put them all up, this post would be twelve pages long.

Here is a shot of B and Spacie in the garden though:

I had a great time. They had holiday decorations up, and Ren Faire musicians playing carols. It was wonderful.
