Best Friends

Logger annoys our cats, Elvis and Maddy, to no end. He tries to herd them as if he were a sheep dog and they were his faithful flock. He snips at their legs when they jump to get away. And he sticks his nose in their behinds every chance he gets. Oh and he chases them around the house. He is an annoying little brother to them.
But then.... the truth came out. Richard caught Logger and Maddy in the act! The act of friendship.
He caught them cuddling!

Aren't they cute?!

Logger denied this ever happened until we showed him the pictures.

RenFest '07

Snot: "Where are you going?"
Puke: "To take my wife's panties off."
Snot: "Why would you do that?"
Puke: "Because they've been riding up my leg all day!"
-Puke and Snot, MN Renissance Festival 2007



September 1, 2007: A hot, sweltering summer day. And Molly wore all black.

We ate lots of tasty bad food including more cheese curds and a caramel apple that stuck to every part of me. We watched half of a bad magic show and thoroughly enjoyed the comedy of Puke and Snot. Jokes so awful they make you groan.

As with any fair, the animals are my favorite. I talked to the piglets (in my secret pig language!) and I pet a few brand new puppies. The goats are always entertaining. And I saw the biggest horse I have ever seen! This woolly guy was cute. I resisted the urge to pet him.

Our first outing with Molly and Ryan since they took the big plunge. They were very patient with Richard and me as we searched for the perfect souvenir mug.

Do you see the poof ball of hair behind us?!? Wow!

Sweaty, tired, and smelly. That sums up how we felt at this point.
Richard swears he'll never go to another Renaissance Festival. He's a country boy. His alliances lie with the State Fair. He says Molly and Ryan will just have to go with us to the State Fair next year.
Sounds like a plan!
