Ruth Goes To The Nutcracker Ballet





For Ruth's birthday she received two tickets
to The Nutcracker
from her brothers and sisters.
Our self portrait

Kids from the community played parts in the
ballet.
Ruth's friend was one of these soldiers.
Ruth took most of these shots.
Not bad considering we used no flash.
And it was very hard to catch their movements.







The sugarplum fairies.
Ruth in her new skirt I made for her
birthday.
Perfect for the ballet.

Our attempt to do a ballet lift. Not quite as gracful
as the real ballet!
Overall it was a very good evening!!

I took the girls to the Nutcracker for the first time this year. A little long for them being so little but they enjoyed it. Did Ruthie love it? I likethe skirt you made for her, just perfect.
