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!

a bruised head board, and other summer fun!

1.  We went on vacation, it was so fun!  More pictures coming later from our adventure at sea!

 2.  I got to see my sweet friend Jeane (I had major dress envy, she always dresses SO cute!) at our friend's wedding!

 3.  S. Clinton  Stanton, Jeane and myself at Leslie's wedding, so fun to catch up with these girls!

 4.  Leslie and her hubby dancing at the reception, beautiful!  

 5.  Upside down picture of the girl who calls her forehead her headboard, more on that later.  

 6.  Hide and seek is a fun game, especially when the hider yells out where she is when you ask! :)

 7.  Picture of Joe and Grandad taken by Hadleigh, her new hobby is photography.  

 8.  Our matching hats, oh how I love this girl.  

 9.  Haddie takes a picture of Ahmi, and it turned out very centered, and once again I am impressed with her 2 1/2 year old photography skills.  

10.  A bonus with no picture (thank goodness!).  Hadleigh and I got to spend a lot of time together this week, and we went to the school playground Thursday evening.  I was walking on the jungle gym and talking to her about being careful, when I walked right into an over hang, and almost knocked myself out.  My injury was right across my forehead, and Hadleigh said and I quote:

 "Ahmi!  Did you hit your headboard?!?" 

Umm, yes I did, and then instead of crying, I was laughing because she says headboard.  So she kissed my headboard, and told me it would be all better, and it was!
