Another Nutcracker season has come and gone. Nutcracker 2011 has proven success for Eden and her cast mates  This year Eden was a Rosebud and shared the stage with the Dew Drop and her Spring Flowers. She is such a big girl and did such a wonderful job! We are so proud of her and all the growth as a dancer she has shown. Next month Eden moves in to Toe-shoes...she is so excited and cannot wait to learn the new technique that all the "big girls" get to do. In next year's show she will grace the stage in her toe-shoe's debut as a Big Angel. My baby is growing up and it is so bitter sweet to watch yet so much fun and exciting. We are eager to see all that she is to accomplish but then catch ourselves holding on to every moment that we can to keep our little girl little. Here's to many more years.
