Winners Announced and Kings Crowned…

We emerged briefly from the middle ages to select some winners for our giveaway!!!  The boys were quite excited about it (although disappointed that they couldn’t enter to win the pencils) and wanted to help, so I reverted to the ‘old fashioned’ way of writing down each name on a slip of paper and letting the two bigger boys select the winners.

We’ve been delving into the world of kings, queens – both of Bible times, the middle ages and the present.

Today we had two coronations.  I’m actually surprised that there wasn’t a request for a third, but my little guy just assumed that as long as he had a crown, he’d skip the formalities…

After watching the footage from Queen Elizabeth’s coronation on you tube, we set out to have our own coronation.  The boys found a suitable thrown and laid out a path leading up to it with our playsilks.  Using our Wikki Stix we encircled a baseball and converted into our orb.  Classy looking, I know!
