These are a few of my favorite things....

The circus...although my idea is an airconditioned tent of some kind. Rhys didn't mind one bit.

Plus, Jacob, from Twilight, showed up and that was cool:

PS. I get uncomfortable when non-Native Americans dress up as Native Americans even if the announcer says it's in honor of them. Weird.

Super happy kid, super hot and sweaty mom.
Hey Meg! Big smile, we're going to the Fairy Tale Festival at Usher's Ferry!

Rhys getting 'knighted' with his lady, Lily watching. He was in swordfighting heaven.

Did it take me 3 hours to make that tunic? Yes, it did. (There is trim I had to sew on that you can't see.)

Oh - wait, how did you get in here? Bad, Robert - bad!

Nothing says random like a smoking hawt pic of fangirl crush level followed by a jar of super yummy curry paste.

Anyone else watching the Tour de France? Did you hear this guy came out of retirement to stop everyone else? Lance is a machine. And his team (Astana) has Levi Leipheimer and Alberto Contador - they are going to put the smackdown on the Tour this year.

I watch a lot of cycling. It's not that random as we have a pro cyclist in my family so we actually do talk about cycling in daily conversation. The Tour is like Christmas time around here. So yes I follow several different cyclists. Last year at the Tour of California, this guy jumped on my radar. Holy smexy facial hair!

He reminds of a mix of Heath Ledger and Orlando Bloom a la Pirates.

And how sad was I when he showed up at the tour this year with his sweet mustache gone.....David Zabriskie you had me at facial hair. Now you look like an alien.

Anyone else follow the Tour??
