This weekend was Old Fort Niagara‘s largest event of the year the French & Indian War Encampment!
He Who Makes Me Smile plays the role of the French and spends the entire weekend at the Fort wearing an outfit like this…
Or his *gnome* hat that looks like this…
I LOVE seeing him at the Fort, it makes him very happy which makes me very happy. I intended on getting down to the Fort in time for the battle, but I missed it on Saturday because I was still preparing for dinner…and then Sunday? Um, I spent in bed all day very, very sick.
But I did get to take a few photos of the event!
I fell in love with these two babies in camp. So. Freaking. Cute. I couldn’t take my eyes off the kiddos the entire time!
The grounds were covered with a marketplace of goods, far better than any mall I tell ya!
He Who Makes Me Smile purchased a bonnet for me. So I can dress up too!
Look how pretty! I love love love it!
And I now have new material so he can sew me a vest. Oh and matching stockings. Maybe two pair of matching stockings.
We toasted to good times…
And had a feast of delicious food.
Now I just have to get photos of He Who Makes Me Smile in ACTION while Blacksmithing or Shooting the Musket. Next time…there’s always a next time.
Glad to see they had Hidden Valley dressing back then!
Clever eye!
