Mighty Knights

The house is the castle keep, with the basement filling in as dungeon. Upstairs are the royal bedrooms, where the royal cats tend to spend their days. The living room must be the main keep, with the area near the front door the surrounding battlements, for it is here that we do all of our battles against the encroaching armies who regularly attack us (but only after we have finished feasting). I am Lady Mommy, while Sis is Lady Sis (or Sir Sis sometimes), and Bud is either Sir Knight or Sir Bud, depending.

Bud says, "I heard on the internet that four armies are coming. Let's prepare!" (don't you just love that? He has no idea how funny that is). And so we huddle and make our game plan for defending ourselves from the north, south, east, and west. Sis has the bow (and usually wears her pith helmet), Bud the dagger (and his black cape). "Move out! Charge!" I usually get beads for swinging or a scrub brush, but it matters little because I'm magic and use the words "abracadabra presto!" to ward off my foes. "Mighty knights! Fight for right! Defeat the evil knights! Go!"

We always catch the foes and take them to the dungeon, then rest and regroup. And then we start all over again.
