Medieval Times

My parents took us all out to Medieval Times again this year. The kids had such a great time last year that they were very excited to go again!


We had our knight-prince and princess all dressed up (never got a good picture of the 2 of them together)


And everyone was excited to cheer on our favorite knight!


My parents go us seats right up at the front



Our knight was the yellow knight


Katheryn got right into it. Cheering and waving!
Every time the knight got to throw a flower into the crowd she was very disappointed that she didn't get one.


Until the end when each knight got to pick a Queen of the tournament.
And she got picked (again)

A Knights Tale

We got the chance to go to Medieval Times with the kids! (Thanks Grandma Ridding)
So of course we had to pull out our knight and princess costumes


Nick has been ighting his wheelchair lately, but we knew it would be way too busy for his walker, and we wanted his energy to be on fun, not on walking.
We had the canes with the wheelchair as a compromise


The kids got spoiled with all of the props and toys we could get them
Exploring all of the castle atmosphere before the show


We were the yellow knight, and got to sit right at the very front


Nick was amazed, I think his mouth was open for the whole show. 
Just watching all of the knights and the horses!


And they had alot of fun waving their flags and cheering!


Even if our knight didn't win


Every knight picks a queen of the tournament.
They give out flowers, but then at the end, the knight has a ribbon that they put on their lance for one person in the audience.
And Katheryn got the ribbon!
She was very excited, and very shy about it (she wouldn't look at the knight afterwards) but proudly wore the ribbon as a sash


After the show the kids stayed in character!


 They are very excited and want to go back!
