Once Upon a Dream

Another one of our favourite Christmas traditions is heading out to the local panto with iChum and family (for my kids, who stick tradition on tradition, it also has to be the last Wednesday before Christmas because that's what we did the first year - except of course we won't be here the last Wednesday before Christmas this year, so we went this evening...) and of course, the big family dinner before hand (which in future now must include Fiona's Family Fortunes!)

I have to say I wasn't entirely too sure we'd be doing it again since two years ago it was so rubbish (so rubbish I didn't even blog it it turns out!) and we came out so disappointed and seriously debating heading into the Big Smoke the next year...  

"Oh no you didn't!"

"Oh yes we did!"

But they totally made up for it this year.  We also booked different (funcier!) seats, which also probably helped!

Obviously they're all smiling behind those masks!

Sorry for the shaky camera work - I think I was bopping away too!
