Sunday Afternoon at the Ballet
Carrie's first professional ballet! She was so excited.
Carrie and mom enjoying our awesome seats - front row center balcony!
I found out that the Northwest Flofida Ballet Company was doing Cinderella and I knew I had to take Carrie! It was a wonderful experience. Carrie is familiar enough with the Cinderella story that she only asked about 300 questions durikng the whole thing (I can only imagine it would have been in the thousands for the Nutcracker!) And she seemed to really enjoy watching the dancing (not one word or sound effect other than the orchestra through the entire 2 hour performance!) And the really cool part is that Carrie's ballet recital this spring willl be at the same theater - same stage! She liked Cinderella's wedding dress and the Fairy Godmother's costume the best. She liked that the court jester could do cartwheels with no hands! And she liked that Cinderella got a robe for the wedding scene that took up almost the whole stage! It was so great!!!

Hi Amy,
I Love these pictures! Oh I am so envious! We took Zoie to see the nutcracker last year...I loved she hated it! She liked the music but she does not like ballet...sigh...oh well at least we both like country!
Love ya my friend
