Nutcracker 2014

Gabby was amazing this year in the Nutcracker!  We had so much fun watching her and also hearing all the raves from fellow parents and people we didn't even know!  When I was selling flowers, a little girl came up to buy a pair of Gabby's signed pointe shoes.  When she found out I was Gabby's mom, she became very excited and asked me to tell Gabby she was her biggest fan.  It was very cute!  I have to admit, Gabby was a very dramatic Clara, but I think the role that really showcased her talent was the Spanish Lead.  That girl is sassy!  We heard that a lot!  We can't wait to see her perform again in February at the Charity Gala and in April in Peter Pan!

Taken during dress rehearsal without a flash, so not the best picture quality.  Gabby as Clara with her "Dad".

She needed a lot of help to get into her bear costume.
