Nutcracker
As a little girl, I remember my mom and I getting all dolled up to go to the Nutcracker during December. I always felt like such a princess. Such a special memory for me with my mom. Now...I get to bring my little girls to the Nutcracker. They couldn't have been more excited! Every day they asked..."do we get to go today??" And finally...the day came. We dressed them up in their fanciest Christmas dresses, I curled/sprayed their hair, they got to wear a little bit of lip gloss and one of my necklaces...and we were all set to go...to the Nutcracker with Grandma! They absolutely LOVED it! Kate was in awe at first...but they loved the music, ballerinas, the snacks (of course)! But...I think i loved it even more...Ava wanted to hold my hand through the whole performance...and Kate sat on my lap. I just love that sort of time with my girls. They still are talking about it (I'm writing this post 1/7!)...Doug DVR'd a Nutc...
