I took my ten-year-old granddaughter and husband to a performance of "The Nutcracker Suite" for their shared birthday gift. It's a wonderful way to show a child that we value music and dance. It was a valuable lesson in the pleasure of fine arts and a wonderful way to demonstrate that I value being with them to celebrate an important day in their lives.

quelle belle sculpture de ces pieds de danseuse
Sure was an unforgettable evening for all, its a magnificent work of art!
I love the nutcracker especially the dance of the sugarplum fairies.
Beautiful sculpture. I love going to the Nutcracker during the holidays.
Beautiful! I hope my feet will be that nimble again when my foot surgery heals up. (I don't think my feet were ever that nimble.)
Super gift! I bet both your granddaughter and husband were pleased. :)
That is a beautiful sculpture Kate. What a nice birthday gift for everyone.
Your lovely image says a lot about ballet. Very nice! And what a magical way to celebrate birthdays!
What a beautiful sculpture (almost as pretty as cowboy boots!).
my wife and daughter are going on Saturday!

First of all, I like your values even though "The Nutcracker Suite" bores me to tears.
That sculpture is a very interesting twist on a theme!
I wanted to see it here, but don't have the time this year. Hopefully next year. And I think it's great to share your love of the arts with your granddaughter. I bet she's creating valuable memories too! :)
valuable indeed!
I love the Nutcracker! Congratulations on the new camera. What did you get?
What a beautiful sculpture.
Our dear friend's daughter is a ballerina with a Dance Group in Northern CA. She was just in the Nutcracker.
We do value those marvelous events and time spent with grandchildren.
What a rare day when one can combine and instill value along with pleasure into the lives of their special people! I applaude you!!
Visiting from your friend's blog, Randy, from Santa Fe!
My girls and my sister Nanette all danced in the Nutcracker for years. Now we enjoy lots of boys and they are less interested...

This picture is beautiful !
and I bed the Nutcracker Suite was a wonderful performance !
gorgeous!
As a ballet dancer AND an artist, I am sitting here noticing that she does not have bunions (like I do) and am also wondering how this was cast to capture the foot position and all the details.
The Nutcracker is the perfect Christmas ballet Kate, my two nieces have been dancing since they were tots, love watching this one! Beautiful sculpture.
it must have been amazing night for all of you, something to remember.
i have enjoyed a few productions of nutcracker and i'm always drawn to see new interpretations.
i love that picture
