The Blassingame family ready to start the feasting!
Our hosts, the Pannells
The Ganns are awaiting the feast.
We had a group of medieval reenactors who showed us armor and weaponry from the middle ages and even staged a fight.

Lords and ladies feasting!
These gals got a good deal on these lovely dresses from a local merchant in the villiage who was obviously fond of purple!
Ignore the modern, ahem, transportation but the carriage was unavailable and a hay ride was in order.
Isn't the boar's head cute? Scott spent days on the hunt to snag this one. :)
John about to chow down on the turkey leg.
Here's that sneaky monk again!!! :)
Eli and Abby are so adorable in their outfits!
Claire and Molly await the beginning of the festivities.
Anna , Sarah and Landers

Anna and Amy are enjoying the fine food and entertainment!

We had such a wonderful evening at the Pannells last night! Their barn was the fairy tale setting of our Credo medieval feast! The candlelight sparkled off the pewter and the grapes, pears, apples , cheeses and breads were abundant on the tables! Our first course of soup was served and then came the smoked turkey legs, pigeon pie and the boar's head. (meatloaf:)
We then had cabbage and potatoes while all the time snacking on the fruit , cheeses and breads all along the table. Violin music from the middle ages was enjoyed next, followed by the reenactors performance and Landers shooting his flaming arrows.
We gathered around the roaring bonfire and then enjoyed tarts, pies and gingerbread for dessert. A most enjoyable time was had by all!
Looks like a fun time! Beautiful costumes. :-)
