Olivia got to participate in her dance studio's Nutcracker for the first time this year. She got to participate because she was in the accelerated Mini Express (teacher picked) dance class. She got to be a mouse this year. It was really cute watching her perform and learn her dance moves. The girls did so well and were not scared at all to perform in front of everyone. It did make our holiday season even more busy as Olivia had 2 practices on Saturdays and then a dress rehearsal the day before.

Olivia had a dress rehearsal the day before her performance at Wilson High School where she was performing. I took her to her dress rehearsal and then we hustled back and got to go to part of Luke's birthday party. I got some fun and cute pictures of Olivia and her friends practicing.

Grammy and Papa came the night before Olivia's performance. Papa stayed home with Brandon and had a guys' night and Grammy went with Sean and I to Olivia's performance. I got a few cute pictures of Olivia before we left to Wilson High School in front of our Christmas tree. Olivia got to wear make up for her performance and looked so old!

We got to the high school and I dropped Olivia off with her group. Then we got to watch the performance. Olivia came on in the middle of the 1st act. Her and the other mice did so well! Then they came on at the end when the mouse queen fought again and was defeated. At the end of the first act, we got to go get Olivia and she sat with us for the rest of the performance. She was excited to watch the rest of the performances and had a blast. It was a very fun way to kick off of our Christmas season!
