Weekend birthday bash

August 6th marked my 20th birthday! To celebrate this milestone, I decided to not only celebrate my birthday on the day of my birth, but to go all out and celebrate all weekend long. And it ended up being the best birthday ever! 

Friday started the weekend off perfectly. I got to play hockey in the morning! No other way to celebrate if you ask me. Later that day I got to help Rami out at her church doing the games for VBS. My mom, Rianne, Anna and Emma came, too! We had a bonfire and hayrides after that. Great night!


On my birthday I got to go see the Bristol Renaissance Faire! So much fun. I'm hooked! I went with Rami and her brothers, Jason and Quin. We got to see some pretty epic shows there. Plus I got roasted nuts, which are possibly the most delicious thing on the whole dang planet. The fire whip guy, Adam Winrich, was probably my favorite show. Check him out! http://www.winrichwhips.com/ We also saw a bagpipe group called Tartanic. Loved them! Barely Balanced was right up there with Adam Winrich. They were very funny and did some crazy stuff. I now have 2 more trip to the Ren fair planned in the next two weeks. Don't judge.

The day after my birthday, we made a trip over to state fair. I was joined by Rianne, Rami, Aaron, Stephen, and my friend David from our TKD dojo. Crazy fun group! And you have to love Wisconsin. Where else do you find deep fried snickers, oroes, pb&j, beer (don't get your undies in a bundle, I didn't have any!) and BUTTER?! I think with the Ren fair and state fair, it's quite possible that I gained 10 pounds! So much tasty food.
