The Nutcracker Ballet






Yesterday Alexa, my mom and I attended the Nutcracker Ballet. It was the first ballet for all of us and we loved it! I can't believe I have never been to the ballet before. What a shame. Alexa really enjoyed it and was mesmerized the first act. The second act she was getting a little tired and ansy but overall she thought it was great. The costumes and sets were so beautiful and much more elaborate than I expected. Alexa has been in ballet for 2 years and seeing the professionals was quite a treat for her. Another great memory created this holiday!

I love the ballet, and haven't been in so many years. So glad Alexa had that experience. How fun. Her dress and hair flower are just gorgeous. Looks like the dress (style) you gave Georgea at my shower. I love it! Beautiful ballerina. :-)
