'The Nutcracker'

My mom and I enjoyed a night out together and saw the ballet 'The Nutcracker' together. I had a lovely time with my mom and re-living my memories of 10 (or so) consecutive years of performing in 'The Nutcracker.' The ballet is a holiday tradition that many dance companies perform on a yearly basis, children dream of dancing up on the stage as the Sugar Plum Fairy, Clara, a snow fairy or the Waltz of the Flowers princess.

I could not help but smile throughout the entire show; smiling because I thoroughly enjoyed watching all the children dance and smiling remembering Crystal, Ashley, and I all dancing various parts throughout our dancing careers. I never knew I would miss dancing in point shoes, the ladies just look so pretty doing so.
I might just have to sign Jaden up some year to be a Party Boy!!!
