I had been wanting to see the Nutcracker with Daddy for a long time! He finally said we could get tickets this year. I looked them up and found 2 front row seats for Thursday night. I went ahead and got them and decided you'd just sit on my lap. A few people didn't think you'd do well sitting through it, but I wanted to try because I thought you would like it. Especially since we were going to be so close.
We got there late because I had to work, and of all the times you are never hungry, you picked tonight to want like10 pieces of pizza! Even though we were late, they started a little late, so we didn't miss anything.
As soon as we sat down the lights went off, the music started, and the chain went up. You were sitting in my lap and Daddy was next to me. I had thought about being able to do something like this for a long time, so as soon as the curtain went up, I got teary eyed. This was something that was perfect for me!
Your sat completely still and quiet. You were mesmerized. Tout didn't move during the whole 1st Act. I was whispering the story in your ear. You were just as good for the 2nd Act. During the 3rd Act, you waves your arms around like the ballerinas did! By the middle of the 3rd Act, you started to get a little antsy, but you were still sooooo good!
At the end, you even told the girls they did good. You also saw the nutcrackers they were selling. I told Daddy that I wanted to get you one, since this was a special time for us. You picked out the pink one!
You walked all the way back to the car, fought with Daddy because you wanted to open your nutcracker, but he said you had to wait until you got home. Instead, tout smuggled the boxed up nutcracker and feel right to sleep!
I couldn't have imagined a better 1st family trip to see the Nutcracker!
