Hard to say whether today's surprise was more for Evie or for me!
Three cheers for Nutcracker Ballet Day!
When I was a little girl, I went to see The Nutcracker every Christmas with my mom, aunt, and grandma. I was the only girl on my mom's side of the family, so this was a very special girly treat. Ever since the Christmas before Ev was born, I've been looking forward to the year she would be old enough to go. Last Christmas, my mom gave Evie The Nutcracker on DVD, we were thinking that if she learned the characters she would be ready to go this year. That plan backfired a bit, as we found out today that she was a little over prepared, in fact she begged us to let her go on stage! Evie was a ball of chatter throughout the performance, telling/asking/conversing about the story line and dances the ENTIRE time! At least the theater was loud and filled with other little girls! It was so much fun, I think my mom and I enjoyed ourselves as much (if not more) than Evie did! Now I just can't wait until Anabelle can come too!
