The Nutcracker

I got tickets for Willa, Rebecca, and I to have a little girls' afternoon out to The Nutcracker at the Smith Center in December. I've wanted to take Willa for a while and thought this year she might be old enough. It was a lot of fun! She was a tad on the young side, but sat on my lap and was very attentive as I whispered some of the plot details to her. It was really good, my only complaint was that the Mother Ginger costume didn't have all the kids hiding inside. How could they not to that? It's iconic!

As soon as we got home, she changed into her leotard, had me put on some Nutcracker music, and started leaping all around. It was so cute.
