Royalty Day

Our second Summer Theme day was originally going to be a Princess Day but as I only have one of those and two Princes' I decided to rename it Royalty Day. I wanted to really focus on the fact that our children have a royal heritage through their Heavenly Father.  In all the excitement of swords and crowns, teacups and magic wands, fruit loop jewelry and dressing up, the message got a little lost.  That is okay though - it was a fabulously fun day.

 Our "magic wands" and marshmallow "tea cups" - pretzel sticks dipped in white chocolate bark and coated in sprinkles - fudge stripe cookies with a marshmallw dipped into the bark, sprinkles added and a half of a fruit loop for a handle.  Lots of sugar baby!!!

 We invited our good friends Paige and Ryanne over to play with us today.  The girls got all dressed up in pretty princess dresses, put on their fruit-loop and twizzler necklaces and then they were attacked by the dragon. 

 Posing Pretty in all their finery.  Don't they ready to go to a ball?

 The Princes' and their swords -- ready to defend the princesses, their beliefs, and their lives!

 (rolled up newspaper, upside down dessert size paper plates and lots of tape)

 YUM!

 All five of the kids together - royaly at its extreme.  These are amazing young kids that will grow to do amazing things as they remember who they are - the Children of a King.

We made our crowns from paper plates that each child colored. Then Mom took the scissors and cut the points.  They turned out really fun.
