Happy Pink Saturday everyone! Thank you so much to our fabulous Beverly of How Sweet the Sound for hosting!

If you haven't already, do stop by Beverly's blog and say hello. Get comfy, grab a cuppa and enjoy all the fabulous pinks the other wonderful and clever participants have posted.

Today I am going to share with you a dream....and a tradition...The Nutcracker


For many, it begins with a first impression...


....a parents delight...


....a young girl's fancy....


....dreams fulfilled


The Bolshoi Ballet


...the Prima Ballerina


Pas de deux....


Pas de...ummm faux pas?...(take a look at the ballerina's expression)


....ouch! haha

Ok, I'm going to scoot. I want to view the other fabulous participants and their post for
Beverly's Pink Saturday! You are more than welcome to join us!

Hugs & kisses!

  4. I love the Nutcracker. We never took my son; he probably wouldn't have enjoyed it, anyway; but, I do feel like I shirked on my parental duty! Thanks for sharing. Maybe we will get to NYC for the holidays and find a performance. Oh, he will be with us. Whew! I can finally cross that off the parent list. At 20, he will most likely hate it even more! LOL!

    Happy Pink Saturday!

  24. Beautiful ballerinas. The most striking thing for me besides the last picture was that poor lone little boy in the black among all the pink frothiness in the third picture. I wonder what he is thinking ....
