The Nutcracker

Some dear friends invited me to the 25th Anniversary of Stowell & Maurice Sendak Nutcracker performed by the Pacific Northwest Ballet. Despite the snowy weather we made it safe and sound to McCall Hall. Before the Nutcracker began, we were able to take a few pictures, get Paige a booster seat and check out the live symphony warming up. Susan (aka Grandma Susan) also made sure our tummies had a delicious snack . . . then, it was curtain time.


One of my favorite quotes that day was, "Grandma, do they talk in this movie?" So innocent! Paige by the way was awesome during the hour and half car ride to McCaw Hall! :)

It is always so much fun watching Wendy (aka as Aunt Wendy and Grandma Wendy) with Paige and all of the other lil' ones - Gracie, Carter, Ella and Addi.

At half time (aka intermission), some delicious cookies and hot apple cider were awaiting us that Susan had pre-ordered for us.

Thanks for inviting me to join the Romney/Johnson afternoon o'fun!
