Getting Outside...

Raising boys can mean fighting the constant pull of the technology game...computer, DVD, Wii...
Fresh air, green grass, tall trees, sunshine and watching energetic boys scootering puts it all in
balance...and does good for this mama too.

All in a Knights day...

 The youth tournament was serious!

 Caleb defending his King...Sebastian.

 One of their favourite activities of the day - shield painting, terrible dragons.

 The Goulds joined us and here they display all their loot.

The kids Medieval festival run by the Abbey Museum annually was impressive today. There was jousting, tournaments, shield and sword making. Lots of battles in and out of tournaments, some ending in tears...oops, all in a boys world and sometimes mama needs to deep breathe and let it all go, and laugh a lot.
