Elizabeth Haze and I went to see the real Nutcracker ballet with Tonya and Presley at the Madison Cultural Arts Center. It was a fancy girls night out that required us to dress up and act like ladies!
Here we are at the house after putting on our makeup and flat ironing our hair. Ironically, EH told me earlier in the week that she was ready to take dancing lessons again. I tried last year, and, well let's just say, it was a fiasco!
Elizabeth Haze was in complete awe of the ballerinas and sat through the first act like an angel. She said, "See, Momma, that's what I'm talking about. That's what I want to do." Wonderful, I thought.
Well, after the intermission and half way through the second act, she and Presley decided that they needed to practice in the aisle. Here Presley is practicing lifting Haze up like the ballerina did! Needless to say, we quietly snuck out after this "performance!" It was hilarious!
We had so much fun. I think dancing is going to be a large part of our lives from now on. Parenting lesson #487- let children do things in their own time and everyone will be happy!
