TOTAL AW!!!!!! PIP

Audrey was in The Nutcracker tonight....the "big" production here in town.  And I"m a TOTAL dance/stage mom!!

Here is a pic....

She was a bumblebee during "Waltz of the Flowers".  Its a small part...but she was starstruck by the whole thing.  We ran into the "Nutcracker" on our way backstage.  She got to dance with a "flower" and it was just really fun for her.

    Yes....everything was just MAGICAL!  She had two shows today, and we didn't get home until 10:30, so she was BEAT!!!!  But it was SOOOOOO worth it.  Taylor is sad/jealous that she didn't try out...she was chicken until the day came but it was too late to sign her up!!  So next year, I may have TWO kids in it!!!!  I hope so!!!!  I LOVE ballet's too.  love, love, love!  In fact, I tried to talk Mitch into signing up for dance so he could be in it too...but he said "no, unless there is truck dancing."  Not sure what 'truck dancing' is...but I guess its the men's version of dancing??? LOL. 

  • That is wonderful and adorable.

  • Wow, that must have been an amazing experience!!  I didn't realize the professional companies did that!  I'll have to look into it when ML is older.

    Great shot!  Did you get that yourself or was that a professional shot?

    That was my "illegal" photo taking from my seats.....shame on me.  Like I said...I'm a TOTAL stage mom.

    She auditioned back in October.  And then the parts that were more involved, like the kids who were at the Christmas party...and the mice/soldier battle (all older kids...like 9-18 year olds???) had rehearsals every Saturday since the try-outs.  The actual dance troop was only like maybe.....20 people total?? And then there were probably 50 local kids who were in each show.  Most parts had 2 or 3 casts....so Audrey was just in both shows today.  There was another cast for last night...and then a cast for tomorrow. 

  • This is just adorable. Yay Audrey! :)
