Ok, so I am still pretty crummy at this blog thing!
Since I last blogged things have changed in our home ed journey. We have decided that flexi schooling for E will end at the end of July (Reception) and he will be home educated full time, and we are now also home educating our 14 year old (year 9). There's no way I can catch up on 6 months of posts, so I wont even try :-)
In the build up to the Jubilee we have been doing some related crafts and projects. E knows all about the Queen now :)

A booklet all about how the Union Jack came about. |
For the Queen's Diamond Jubilee weekend we went down to London on the Sunday and braved the weather. It was cold, it was wet, but in true British style, the crowds were out to celebrate.
We were lucky enough to win tickets to the Family Festival in Hyde Park. I say lucky, in reality I was glad we hadn't paid for them. The whole thing was a complete disappointment, from the crummy stalls, over priced refreshments (not to mention the 30 minute wait for a coffee) to the ridiculous 1 hour queue for the Kids Zone shows and the average Main Stage shows.
We all got very cold and very wet, but I'm sure we built some memories for our boys who will be able to tell their grand children that they were there!
