The Nutcracker with Carly & Betty

(They have been so sweet to come to Lubbock the past two years to go with us to the Nutcracker. Especially since we stole their tradition of going every year! London will get to join the girls next year when she is 3 1/2). When the girls get older, I look forward to traveling to different cities to see thier versions of the production!
