my favorite christmas tradition is seeing a christmas carol play. we have gone practically every year since i was three years old. my grandma, "nanny," started the tradition by taking the whole family. when she passed away my mom generously kept the tradition alive. now she takes only the grandchildren once they have turned five years old. i go along because it wouldn't be christmas without seeing it, plus i help mom manage three very excited kids :)
this year my nieces and i decided to take our ag dolls since they just got them for christmas last year. felicity was very excited i took her! i've never taken any doll to the show but i knew felicity had to be my companion because she is my most special doll and i like to do lots of things with her. the other dolls were happy to hear all about the show when she got home.
here my nieces torture my nephew. pretty sweet huh!
here are some of the cast members doing a little pre-show caroling.
julie, felicity, and kit loved the show but the part when marley comes was a little scary. they had to close their eyes and hold hands for that part!
during intermission we always get cookies and hot chocolate. felicity and i shared a cup of hot chocolate, a candy cane, and a gingerbread man that had a frown.
we all thought that it was very funny that i got the sad gingerbread man. makes me think of gingy from shrek, "not my gumdrop buttons!"
so we decided to take a picture after every bite
no more legs
no more arms
no more eyes
no more gingy, only crumbs :( that's the saddest part...gimme more!
even though it was very late after the show and seeing christmas lights, and taking the kids home, felicity insisted on staying up to read the program and tell the other dolls all about it.
she loved it so much!!!!
we are sad we have to wait all the way until next year to see it again.
