Mary POPPINS!

Last year when I saw that the Walton Arts Center was going to have Mary Poppins this spring I started talking to Hadleigh about the love she needed to have for my favorite childhood movie.

You will love Mary Poppins! :)
We watched some of the songs on youtube and her mom borrowed the movie and let her watch it before coming up for the play.  She also got an umbrella for Easter and her mom sent me a video of her holding it up and jumping off the step saying "I'm Mary POPPINS!"

I'm not positive if she was more excited about the actual play, the fact Mary Poppins could fly with an umbrella or the dress she got to wear to the play that she wanted to sleep in the night before she came.

You gotta have your lipstick on before you go to a play.  

We met in Alma for the pick-up and headed up the hill.  Hadleigh picked US Pizza for dinner, pizza is her current favorite!  I picked ice cream for our after dinner treat and then we headed into Mary Poppins!
Pink ice cream with M&M's for Had...

"Does Mary Poppins have a car?  How did she get here?"

My new favorite picture...

It was so fun and Hadleigh had a good time!  Her favorite song from the show is probably "A spoonful of sugar" and we sang it quite a few times in the car.  In the middle of the play she said, "Ahmi, what are we going to eat for breakfast?"  I was laughing because that is so something I would be worried about myself! :)  Gotta be planning ahead like that.  She stayed the night with us and we curled up in bed and watched some Charlotte's Web before sleep!  Can't wait for our next date night!

We LOVED it too! It was fun just to watch Trey and Anna watch it. At one point Trey leaned over and said, "I wish I was that little boy mom."
