Aiden as a Shepherd!

Yesterday was Aiden's big debut as a shepherd in his school nativity play. I wasn't sure that he would be into it, but when we got there and he saw us he was all smiles. They sang "We wish you a Merry Christmas" after the play (complete with "Oh bring us some figgy pudding!"). It was adorable...well, except for him picking his nose!!

Jacob's School Nativity

It finally feels like Christmas this week - all due to Christmas programs at school. Tradition at Holtspur school is that Year 1 kids do the nativity section of the Christmas program. So, Jacob was an innkeeper. Not the one who lets Mary and Joseph in, one that turns them away. I was totally expecting Jacob to say his lines and be done with it. Afterall, I've been hearing it over and over for the past month - in a British accent as well. But, kids like to surprise their mums. Take a look - maybe he'll follow in his papa's footsteps...
