THE NUTCRACKER! A Night of Excellence

Late but present, my post of our special night at the Nutcracker:
First an exquisite dinner at a fine-dining restaurant. Notice the red velvet on the walls? This is no Dennys people.

A cute pic of Garrett. Really it's just a sneaky trick to get a snap of the waiter with his tuxedo. I tell ya - Fancy.

Then on to CONCERT HALL!! A photo in front of the huge and beautiful Christmas tree. What a happy couple!

Then this! My view! This lady had some sort of hair piece that seriously sat 5-6 inches tall from her head! NO JOKE! Even the 6 foot guy in front of me moved. What was I supposed to do? I'm only all of 5'3" if I'm lucky!
Actually it ended up being ok. Gave me good reason to snuggle up to Garrett's shoulder :)


A snapshot of the sugar plum fairy taking her bow. She was fantastic, of course.

And to end the night, a little purchase to remember our special night. Doesn't she look good on my tree?
So a good night! I'm so glad Garrett is such a patient husband who humors my need for a sentimental remembrance ornament. I'm so glad Garrett is such a fun husband who can make the best of anything and even had a good time at the ballet! (well he made sure I understood that it was a great once-a-year kindof a deal, but not so much every-chance-possible) I'm so glad Garrett is a thoughtful and romantic husband who had the sweet idea of surprising me with such a wonderful night out. Gotta love that man.
