September Fun

September brings two family favorites: Cox Farms Fall Festival and the Maryland Renaissance Festival. The Renaissance Festival actually begins at the end of August, but it's usually very hot the first weekend(s). This year we went Sept. 10th to the Renaissance Festival so that Josiah could come. Cox Farms Fall Festival began the following week, and once he started working at the Fall Festival, he would have fewer opportunities to go with our family.

First, the Renaissance Fair

and a flower wreath in my hair.

I got my costume at the Fair that day.

I had wanted one for years.

Second, Cox Farms Fall Festival

Kick off weekend had Josiah help with training new employees

at the Cox Farms Fall Festival. Above you can see him at the rope swing.

There are lots of places you can take pictures on the farm.

Below: Jordan on a tractor. The tractor doesn't work, of course.

Jordan treasures the leather jacket he was wearing. He would

never wear it to do work of any kind, let alone farm work.
