Sunday

Today Violet, her Grammy (my stepmum) and I attended a showing of The Nutcracker at a local theater.

It was really great.  None of us had ever attended a ballet so it was a new and exciting experience.

Violet held attention on-and-off for the majority of the performance.  She became sleepy towards the end but I don't fault the performers, she is just still so young and also, recovering from a week-long sickness.

The dancing was amazing.

Ballet dancers really awe me though, they are so beautiful and graceful.  I think that I would enjoy seeing more ballet someday, maybe on a professional, big city level.

Here are a couple of shots from our day:

Waiting for the show to begin..

A big thank you to my 'rents for gifting us this opportunity.

I hope that Violet's love of theater will continue.
