Jilly and I took Addi Kate to her first Nutcracker Ballet this year. I dreamed of this day and it was even better than I ever could have imagined.
The ballet instructor at my former school is the Artistic Director for the First Coast Nutcracker and gave us fabulous tickets to the matinee. So all three of us got dolled up and took a few photos before we headed out the door.

We also took a picture in front of the beautiful tree at the Florida Times Union Performing Arts Center before the show.
We had excellent seats, thanks to Ms. Rhonda!
Here is Addison patiently waiting on the show to begin...
Right before intermission it SNOWED!!!!! Addi Kate was beyond thrilled!
I wasn't sure anything could top the thrill of seeing and touching the snow, but Ms. Rhonda invited us backstage to meet some of the ballerinas...including Addison's favorite, Clara!!!
Clara was one of my former students at LaVilla and gave Addison the royal treatment. I know Addi felt SO special!
Again, I can't even begin to express the overwhelming joy Jilly and I felt on this very special 1st Nutcracker Ballet with our sweet Addi Kate!
