My Faire lady

I often refer to Sydney as my little drama queen. That's not necessarily a bad thing. Her flare for the theatrical served her well last Sunday when we visited the Olde World Renaissance Faire in Twig. Dressed as a princess, Sydney was in her element.
While waiting for the knights' joust to begin, Sydney was absolutely drawn to a group of wandering musicians. When they noticed her dancing, one of the performers broke out of the group to teach Sydney some of their moves.

Lifting up her skirt, Sydney happily twirled 'round and 'round.

This is the third year we've gone to the fair, but the first that Sydney really showed any interest in participating.

Put her in a setting where the theatrical is celebrated, and Sydney fits right in. And watching her, I think she'd make a pretty good queen. All of her "subjects" were smiling by the time we left.
