The Nutcracker

The girls and I went to see the Nutcracker yesterday. The ballet was put on by The Indiana Youth Ballet. http://indianayouthballet.com/services.html It was great! Grace and Luci would say things like, "It is so beautiful, " throughout the whole show. Luci's favorite part was the little princess, a three year old who did a small part with a boy about 5. The boy actually picked her up and they did this type of move: It was so cute. Luci also talked about the princesses with the long pink ballet skirts and flowers.

Grace's favorite part was when "Jazmine" was in it. She is talking about the part when they travel to the Middle East and wear costumes similar to Jazmine, the princess from Aladdin. Grace also kept referring to Clara as Barbie because we have the movie Barbie in the Nutcracker.

The funniest part, or most embarrassing, however you want to look at it, was when the prince came out to dance with Clara for the first time and Luci SHOUTED out with a funny laugh, "He is wearing tights!" Even the 2 dancers showed signs of hearing her.

We had a great time! I didn't bring the camera, but here are some pics from their web site.
