The Nutcracker

Our school went on a field trip yesterday to go see the ballet, The Nutcracker, and I actually got to go! It was an abbreviated version so it only lasted an hour but my kids were still bored for the most part. I liked it. Of course when we left, I was informed by the 2nd grade boys that there wasn't enough fighting and when the mouse king's head was cut off, there was no blood. How disappointing.

 Andrew did recognize one of the songs. It was this one... 



So when we got home, Andrew was humming this part of the ballet and got a puzzled look on his face. "Mom," he asked, "is that a BonJovi song?" hee hee

Lucky!!! I saw the one-hour version advertised in the paper, and I wanted to take the girls.

Bon Jovi. Heehee.

When can I come down and rescue you from work to go do lunch?
