The Nutcracker season has begun! Jetted over to the Power Center after work today to do my duty volunteering for tonight's tech rehearsal. My oldest is a "Boy at the Party" and I felt a bit nostalgic watching her get ready. Her first role in the Nutcracker was as a toy angel at 4 years old. And, now she's applying her makeup by herself and has her own dressing room space (that she made sure to decorate with wolves, Matryoshka nesting dolls, and of course Nutcrackers). It was fun getting the girls ready, experiencing another Nutcracker developmental milestone (Boys and Girls at the Party versus previous years as Sugar Plums and Toys) and watching these little ones grow up to be amazing tweens and teens. And, I especially loved being backstage and watching them perform. It'll be exciting watching them perform for real this coming weekend.
SO cute! We will be seeing them on Saturday. Can't wait!
