Geez Xander is the awesome! I adore the kid!

Isn't he absolutely adorable?  Sweetest kid.

[FaeHollow]

He is sweet and hilarious and highly motivated and VERY talented for his age. He overflows ideas like you would not believe! He is a ball of energy too... I am always having to reign him in lol he wants to do so much! We adore him!

[Zardoz]

Good job Blue!  And congrats to all the winners!  

It's likely because of my faire induced ADD, but I don't think I've really seen Jessica as Queen Anne.  
I have, it seems, met her mother, Elizabeth, the Countess of Wiltshire though, (or at least a upwardly noble woman claiming to be Elizabeth Boleyn) she has stopped me and had me 'flash the pleats' a couple of times.

Sunday, October 31st, Andie Nelson as Thorra the Joyous

The Norse men of old lived in the cold
But their stamina was not at all hampered.
Berserkers they were, pillaging all on sheer nerve
And their spirit never was dampened.
Thorra the Joyous we know is an ice maiden fair
Partakes in the Horde's raids on their heel.
She absconds with her share back to her lair,
Andie Nelson plays her real with her zeal.

Saturday, November 6th, Ron "Rabbit" Lewis as Robin Hood

Legends of Old tell us the tale of Robin Hood and His Merry Men.
They stole from the rich to give to the poor over and over again.
In the Forest of Sherwood they hide from the Sheriff of Nottingham who is nasty and rude.
His sights are set on Robin, his head for a price, be it ugly and bloody and crude.
Ron Lewis is his name who plays this outlaw game, Eluding the Sherriff and his gang.
He's a joy to have around, as he charms all in town playing his cat and mouse game.

Sunday, November 7th, Brittnay Tidwell as Madigan Hatter
Brittnay,
You are in a far greater place where the light shines forever,
Its only challenge is your effervescent smile.
Watch over us all as we keep you close in our hearts,
As we remember you all the while.
Rest in Peace Sweet Brittnay.

Saturday, November 13th, Melissa McClung as Lady Beatrice Busybody, The Mistress of the Revels

More characters she's played than anyone I know,
Be it the highest of blue bloods, or the lowest of the low.
As the Mistress of the Revels she keeps our day going
And would soldier on thus, whether rain, sleet or snowing.
You cannot deny she is a pro's pro at that,
Melissa McClung, you're always where its at.

Sunday, November 14th, Jim Cook as Father Jacob Black

If you've got sin on the brain and indulgences are your game
Father Jacob Black is here and he can help you.
If you want your prayers all heard, then to him just say the word,
And he'll lend a guiding hand or maybe two.
Jim Cook does rather well as the clergyman who sells
Salvation for a song, or dance or jest.
We hope he's here to last as he's fantastic with our cast,
A fine performer at The Tex Ren Fest.

Saturday, November 20th, Kinsey Britton as Ichipop the Elf

As the holidays draw near, and there is joy upon the air
Santa's elves make ready for their day.
Making toys by the dozens and baking cookies in their ovens
They work so very hard with little play.
But at New Market's fall faire, they can give little care
To their round the clock labors in high gear.
Ichipop is Kinsey Britton and all of us are smitten
With her boundless energy and Christmas cheer.

Congrats Jim!!!!

[Blue66669]

That girl has an EPIC amount of energy! Well deserved indeed! And Mr. Cook is quite possibly one of the best clergy characters I've ever come across. I think we broke him when we decided to divide by zero.
