I want to be a ballerina when I grow up....


Last night, I took my 4 best girlfriends to the ballet for the first time.



We saw The Nutcracker....and it had the very effect I was hoping for.



Elie was estatic... she moved so much in her seat just to take in every moment. She didn't want to miss a single thing.


Mandie, Jessie, & Lindsey were enamored with the entire idea of it all...


WE WERE AT THE BALLET!


Afterwards we went out for hot chocolate and laughed and giggled until our sides hurt.


It was one of the best nights ever.



“Through ballet I was fortunate to find a place to escape, a refuge from my feelings of being an outsider. "~Heather Whitestone

"I got kicked out of ballet class because I pulled a groin muscle. It wasn't mine."~Rita Rudner.
