It's almost over! Three Nutcracker performances down and four to go. This is Bailey in her party girl costume, she was originally in a purple dress but they changed it at some point and she is over the moon that she got green. She is also a soldier and a bon-bon but I have not managed to catch her backstage in those costumes.
We have tickets to both the afternoon and evening performances this Saturday. Bai is a party girl in the afternoon shows and a soldier and bon-bon in the evening shows, basically I need to see both. Although I did manage to catch her dancing as a party girl in the dress rehearsal Friday night and it was great!
She is so excited, she loves the 7 hour rehearsals and all of the costume fittings. She hates the mascara and the eyeliner and the removal thereof. But she doesn't bat an eye that it takes me almost 90 minutes to get her hair in ringlets, also half a can of hairspray. I have three burns on my left hand from one performance, ow.
By Sunday things will be back to normal around here, yay! And Tim starts vacation on Thursday, double yay!
