Nutcracker Ballet


Our first Nutcracker Ballet...such a magical evening.  The kids were in awe of the sites and scale of the Wortham Center.  They spotted the gift shop right away and selected a Nutcracker doll for Nathaniel and Clara doll for Lily.  They were both attentive to the entire show but the last few minutes.  Lily loved Clara and followed the story carefully.  She was concerned to see the prince dance with the Snow Queen and other characters in the Land of Sweets.  She also recognized some of the music that has been played in her dance class. Her eyes lit up with every new scene.  
Nathaniel wanted to know, "Mommy, can we do this again soon?  Like in January??"  I'm so glad their first ballet was such a hit!
