Getting Ready for the Nutcracker

Grandma came over to help Sister fix her hair and makeup. Notice the counter full of makeup and various beauty products. Apparently, it takes that much stuff to make a ballerina.
They wouldn't allow us to come backstage or take pictures during the performance, so I have no pictures of my angel in her costume. But, I did manage to get a quick picture before she scampered to the dressing area with the other dancers.
Back at the house (Blogger managed to mix up the picture order), as she danced in front of the tree.
Can you tell which child is more excited about going to the Nutcracker?
Brother actually did great at the show. He watched almost the entire first act in awe. The second act he switched between nursing and watching until finally falling asleep in Grandma's lap fifteen minutes before the end of the performance.
