Nutcracker!

The Nutcracker, of course, is one of my MANY favorite traditions for the holiday season.  

Every year it is off with Mimi and the girls for a fancy lunch/dinner and then the Nutcracker.  This year was a little different because Mimi was still trying to unpack her new house and she couldn't join us.  She was greatly missed and we already have her reserved for next year!  

Another difference for us this year was that we went to the the Tulsa Nutcracker.  It is set in a different era so the costumes were a change, but other than that it was a great show!

 It was also Miss Caroline's first time going to see the Nutcracker with the girls!  She was so excited to get to do this with us that I pretty much got her to do anything I asked for a whole two days leading up to it.  I wasn't sure how it would go but she was mesmerized!  Her face lit up with each scene, I could barely get her to take a break at intermission to use the restroom!

 Getting ready to head off to the show!

 Of course our classy "fancy" lunch before we went:)

Isabella brought her sweet new friend with us to see the show!

These two were excited to have a day of "boy" stuff to do.  Haircuts...hardware store...go carts...pizza...bounce u...video games.  Oh, the life of a man!
