The Nutcracker





This year a new tradition was started. Mommy and daughter date to see The Nutcracker in Kannapolis. Emma has a couple of friends who dance in that particular show, so we thought it would be more meaningful to her to see her friends up on stage.
The beginning of the performance was uneventful. Emma mostly stared and played with her glow in the dark seat number on her chair. Then when the dancing really began, she became enthralled. During the intermission, she acted out the dances while we waited for the second act to begin. The second act, she sat on my lap and really enjoyed the remainder of the performance.
After we got home from the performance, Emma had to act it out for Daddy. She refused to take her dress off and was tippy-toeing around and around the living room just like the dancers. It was so cute to watch, and I am really looking forward to next year.
