A MEDIEVAL CELEBRATION



The day has finally arrived. Olivia has been wanting to have a "Medieval Feast" for quite some time. She loves this time period in history. She thought it would be nice to have it during a "cool" time of the year and since it was actually on Ariana's birthday, they could celebrate together. Everything went pretty close to the way they had planned it to go. A few "dangerous" games were changed by their father, but there were still enough of those left. The only game that we thought would be the safest, turned out to be the most dangerous!!


It was a great day
