We were off to the Nutcracker early on Friday. It was a great set of seats! We were front row. I wondered if the kids thought they were watching a movie, or if they really knew that there were actors and dancers on the stage.
I was disappointed by the performance. A maid came out and told nearly the entire story of the Nutcracker...then there were two dance routines and it ended. The performance was twenty minutes late, and ended ten minutes early.
There was no rat battle and no introduction to the nutcracker. What was done was good, but there was no story.
I was sorry for the kids because they really looked forward to this, and it was a big zero.
After the Nutcracker, we went over to visit Miss Amy's mom in the nursing home. We sang a lot of our songs and visited with the residents. Then it was home for a delicious pizza. The kids ate the WHOLE eight boxes...
The afternoon was slow and busy with play. Everyone was tired.
All in all, it was a nice week. Looking forward to the party next week.
Have a great end to your weekends!

Mom remembered the kids coming to sing. She thought they were the smartest kids she'd ever seen. Fourof her "neighbors" were not present and hoped that they would get to see the kids next time. I was SO proud of the "Garden School Choir!" It meant a lot to me and to the residents as well.Thank you all!
