The Nutcracker Tradition Continues...

Since I moved back to Texas from college in Utah, my mom, sister Natalie, and I have gone to the Houston Ballets Nutcracker performance. When Ella was 3.5 she came with us for the first time and then last year Channing started to join us at the same age. It has been a tradition that my girls have really looked forward to. This year Channing's preschool class was going on a fieldtrip downtown to see it, and we were lucky enough to get enough tickets to make it a family trip in one! We attended a student performance, where all the audience was students, but they had the actual professional dancers performing. We had amazing box seats and the tickets were much much cheaper. It was wonderful!

Channing's class has 6 cute girls in it. She loves Miss Lindsay and going to school with these girls.

Me and the girls!

It was windy, but a nice warm winter day.

That gingerbread house would take an amazingly large oven to make!

Here we all are. Such a fun girl outing. Afterward we went to the Hard Rock Cafe across the street and had lunch. It was a great day.
