How's that ditty go again?

  1. For the Money
  2. For the Show
  3. To get ready, and
  4. To go!

Forget the money part, Dakota preforms for the love of the game. Or the show as it is in this case. Tonight is the first of 4 Nutcracker on Ice: All Jazzed Up! shows that she is skating all weeknd. This year she is a toy and a mouse - meaning she gets to fight soldiers and then die dramatically on the ice! She is totally thrilled, as am I to see the whole thing on Sunday. Till then, I am doing my duty as an involved mother - AKA dressing room mom, er, wrangler. How much trouble can 12 3 4 5 and 6 year olds get into? ha ha ha

We are chilling at home until Will gets out of work, and then we will scarf some grindage, and hit the road to the rink. How glad am I right now that we are actually as close as we are?

I'll post the link to pics in a few weeks when they are available. Till then, enjoy last year's...

and here http://cnsphotos.dynalias.com/nutcracker2005/Tots/index.htm you have to look harder for her, as they are all wearing the same costume.

And here are the pics of Dakota's current skating coach, last year as the featured guest skater http://cnsphotos.dynalias.com/nutcracker2005/Special_Guest/index.htm

enjoy!
