Nativity

Nosh in our local

On Monday Grannie and Grandpa arrived ready to see Tom in his nativity play on Tuesday.  They came up by train and were here early enough to pick him up from school - they were greeted by a very excited Tom.I didn't go to Boxercise tonight as we decided to go out for dinner, however, as it was a school night and Tom was having a big day tomorrow we stayed local and went to the Wheatsheaf.  Tom and his grandparents had a great time being silly.  Tom somehow managed to get quite a big share of Grandpa's chips - and ate them all!!!

The full cast

Tuesday was the big day.  He had two shows - one at 2.30 and another at 6.00.  We went to both as did Grandpa.  Grannie only managed the early show.  It was very very sweet, full of jokes and all told and sang in 'Northern'.  It starred two classes - Tom's and the class above.  The class above had all the talking bits and Tom's class had dancing roles.  Tom was a cow.  Luckily I had managed to get hold of a cow onesie so Tom was looking good.  This year, unlike last year he knew all the words to all the songs, but he still didn't really add any volume to the show.  He did know his dance though and concentrated during most of the half hour show.

It was great, I really enjoyed it as did everyone else.  I wish a video could be taken of it, as it is something I would love to watch again and again especially when I'm in need of light relief or something uplifting.  Oh hum, I will have to remember it as well as I can.
