Getting Ready for The Nutcracker

Once again my kids are preparing for The Nutcracker. It is not nearly as exciting as it was last year when Princess was the Sugar Plum Fairy and Prima Donna played Madame Ginger, but the girls still have great parts.

Princess wanted a smaller part which is good because she has a new job working in the deli at Smith's. She is enjoying the roles of Snow Corps and Spanish dancer. Crafty is also in the Snow Corps and she does a fantastic job as an Arabian dancer.

We got to see both girls perform those parts on Saturday at the Christmas Gift Show even though it wasn't quite as amazing on flat as it is on pointe. Their stage has these weird little circles on it and I think the girls would break their necks if they tried it. One little girl in a different group had her feet slide right out from under her! Ouch!

Fajita is in the Waltz of the Flowers and Scout is a soldier, so we have quite a group to watch. We would love it if any of you in the valley could attend. The performances are December 3 - 5 at 7:00 with a Saturday matinee at 2:00.

Wait, why am I telling you all this? You can just read it on the poster. Hope you can come!
