When I took Eliza to play-school this morning, I found out that she's very confidently told everyone we're off on a family holiday to Disneyland (in America- no less!) next week. They were very sorry to hear this as they would have liked her to be Mary in the Nativity play.

We're not going to Disneyland (must be wishful thinking!), but if we had been planning to go I swear I would have cancelled- Mary?... It's a dream come true!!! Who says I can't satisfy my unfulfilled childhood ambitions through my offspring?!
(Buttons and fabrics bought this morning- with a spring in my step- for a pre-Christmas birthday present).


I am heartily laughing out loud!! Okay, this could be one of two things.. A) she thinks she is visiting her pink auntie in America, who WILL take her to Disneyland if you ship them down..
or B) She doesn't want to be Mary and came up with a huge excuse, which would put her out of the country... hahahaaa
Soooory, can't be Mary this week, I will be on business in America... hahhahaahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

Playing Mary brings up sweet memories. I have to search for a very old photo. I played Mary when I was about 5 years old.... I was in love with Joseph!! He had the cutest cheaks!
I love your blue fabrics!

Love the Mary story! Fred keeps coming home from school confidently telling me that one of his friend's is going to take him to Disneyland with them. (He is 5)
Absolutely in love with those fabrics and those buttons - where did you buy them????? Lucy x
