The Nutcracker

We took Chloe and Caleb to see the Nutcracker at the Capitol Theater in Salt Lake City last week.  I was slightly nervous about them getting restless, but they LOVED it and were SO good.  Caleb got a little wiggly at the very end when there was about 5 mintues left....but that's it! 
We had box seats, so we were really close to the stage.  You can get tickets for a little "party" onstage after the show where you can get a picture taken with Clara, the Sugarplum Fairy and some others.  Plus you get to see the huge skirt and all the other props, and enjoy some cookies and juice.  And you get a Nutcracker ornament too.
I hadn't been to the Nutcracker in years. I'm so glad we went, we had so much fun! And thanks to our awesome friends for watching Claire and Carson for us!





For some reason, Caleb thinks it's funny to make silly faces in pictures lately.
The great thing was that Jeff got the tickets for the Nutcracker and the after party for FREE!!  :)

My Mom use to take me to the Nutcracker every year as a little girl, then we would go to Market street. Such fun memories. Glad the kids were good!

Agree with Mon-I love our dinner dates!
