Looks like Mr. ML & I will have costumes for our Medieval Christmas dinner.:) The sister of a friend of mine belongs to The Society For Creative Anachronism and does lots of re-enacting type things.......she is loaning us a couple of things.
I have the centerpiece and table linens planned.......also the table settings, extra candles, etc. etc. etc. Still have to pull together all the music, readings, etc. Not to mention the food.:) The lamb & beef have been ordered; Grandma is bringing the goose. The plum pudding is made. The English cheeses have arrived. Still working on fruit/veggie dishes.
The kindergarten had a bell choir. The bells were one of several colors. They played a tape of "Silent Night" and the teacher held up cards with the different colors as the appropriate note or notes were needed. It sounded great, and the kids were so proud!
I had never seen bells done that way before, and it was surprisingly good.
Also, my grandchildren were of course cute and stellar performers (except Nathan got a bit of stage fright...but there were over 300 in the audience).
