Nutcracker Tea

A FUN alternative to The Nutcracker is the Nutcracker Tea. While we tend to get a bit antsy (myself included) during the full Nutcracker ballet, this experience didn't have us getting antsy at all. It was so cute! We went with our friends Brooke (and Nora) and Kelley (and Ainsley and Kelley's mom, Sandy).

(hehe, Nora)


The characters had a parade. Lainey wanted pictures with everyone. Except the soldiers. But she liked everyone else. I think she's afraid of people in costume…when they almost look like real people but not quite…I think those are the ones who scare her the most.


I need this ballerina to come give me some hair lessons. There are no wispies on her head!


Sugar Plum Fairy! I think she was tired of taking pictures… :-/


with Clara and Fritz :)

Wet hair and Dippity Do gel for the hair. I'm not sure that's still available, but I'm sure there's an equivalent these days.
