"Mary Poppins" and Teatime


It's been a busy weekend, but the highlight was undoubtedly traveling up to Buford on Saturday to see my granddaughter, Bella, perform the lead role in her school's production of "Mary Poppins," and I was ridiculously proud of her! She has a beautiful voice, and while I may be the teeniest bit biased, I thought her performance was outstanding. You won't be surprised to hear that I had asked her mom to alert me when the teatime scenes were coming up, like this one where Mary Poppins pulls a teapot out of her bag!


And here's another. (No flash photography was allowed, but an iPhone quietly held chest-high can still do a decent job of capturing things.)


I also liked this scene with Mary Poppins and Bert enjoying tea and cake.


During intermission, the high school's theatre boosters sold concessions, and I thought they were spot-on, from the decorative chocolate spoons …


To the cute sugar cookies.


I'll end today with a few more fun photos and say "thank you" for enduring a bit of proud-grandmother gushing!
