I always said if I ever went to the Texas Renaissance Festival that I wanted to do it up right! This year, I finally got my chance. While Kevin and I were having our first annual Halloween pilfer of the season, I found this amazing gold snake headpiece! I knew I had to have it even if I just wore it randomly around the house (Yes, I would!). So we decided on a whim, let’s go all out and finally check out the TRF! We started putting together our costumes that day. Over the course of the week, we each found the rest of our accessories and were ready to rock. The theme on our weekend was “All Hallows Eve.” It was an AMAZING day! The weather was great. I loved seeing people of all shapes and sizes looking fabulous in all kinds of different costumes. I held a beautiful snake, devoured some amazing funnel cake, and enjoyed my favorite activity; shopping! The night ended with a spectacular fireworks show. I need to start planning next year’s costume. Huzzah!

SIDE NOTE: I also have to give HUGE round of applause to the Texas Renaissance Festival for really having their act together. Despite the large crowds, the grounds were very clean and everything seemed extremely organized. There were plenty of CLEAN bathroom facilities too. After my ACL experience, I can’t tell you what a bonus that was! If you’ve never been before, I strongly recommend you go check it out!
