The Nutcracker

We went to The Nutcracker again this year.  The Nutcracker was the first book Terefech received from her grandfather.  My dad likes to write in the front of the books he gives you.  He is an avid reader and loves to share that love with my kids.  When Terefech first joined our family, she didn't have any books to her but Declan did.  Her heart soared when she got that book for Christmas.  It is almost always on her shelf, rarely finds it's way to the boxes of extra books we have.  And so, she also loves going to see the ballet.  Declan loves it too!



 Meeting the performers is a special treat!

 The candy cane is my favorite!





I love getting us all dressed up and going into uptown for a special family day together.  The kids now look forward to seeing the big Christmas tree, the singing bears and seeing all the decorations!
