The Nutcracker

Lily and I went to see The Nutcracker yesterday. It was a lot of fun. Lily has been really excited to see it so she could see real ballerinas in real tutus! She wanted to wear her dress that most resembles a ballerina's costume. She kept asking if the ballerinas would think she was beautiful. :0)

We had awesome seats! We were in the first row of the "balcony" (which was actually only 4 steps up). We had lots of leg room and no one was directly in front of us so Lily was able to see with no problem at all!

I was going to take her to the one at Century II, but then I saw that Friends University puts it on too. It is a much smaller theatre, so I thought we would have a better chance of getting good seats for Lily to be able to see. I am so glad we chose Friends! It was really good & we would have had great seats wherever we sat in that theatre.

Lily was really into the ballet for most of it. She did however try to talk through the majority of it. I feel really sorry for her Kindergarten teacher next year. Lily really does love to talk...... ;0) When it was almost over, she started to get antsy, but I think she did pretty good for a 4 year old! Hopefully we can make this a new Christmas tradition!
