The Nutcracker on Ice

1st day of the show, I came by the rink in the afternoon to help set up the back drop and then returned home. Well the first show was a success, it felt just like dress rehersal though.
The first number I was in was the oppening christmas party and I played as a parent. While standing on the side watching the others with their solos my partner in crime Lindsay S. and I sneeked off the ice to change for our next number as Wind up Dolls, it was my fav number. well we got back there changed and put our hair in pig tales. After this number we went around to the other side of the rink for the Snowflake (syncro) number. When this one is done we have intermission. Then near the end of the second half, most of us from the snowflake group came out as flowers and skated to Waltz of the flowers with my coach Rory.

The second day was even better it was amazing! everything was going perfectly!! We even finished the two big boxes(present) that Lindsay and I were supposed to be in for our doll number. The day before since we didn't have them we just bent over and was pushed out. So this time we were behind these boxes so no one could see us, we were pushed out and then bent over so when the boxes moved we were suddenly there! it was AWESOME! Lindsay and I did really good and were synced pretty well. For the snowflake number we did a great job two the whole group did better then we ever have and the lifts went well too. During intermission some of us went into the lobby. I ran into my cuz Aileen, Saw my 1st coach Allison, and then ran into my friend Josh. As we were chatting a women came up and asked if her daughter could get a photo with me. I felt so famous haha. Then I saw some of my students from LTS with there faces all lit up. Josh's younger sister came up and I was able to meet her and his nephew. Then it was back to get ready for our number. Finally we came out for the flower number, it went very well. my fav part was when my coach did a back flip and the crowd just went nuts!! For the bowing Lindsay and I decided to do our syncro jump and it went well.
After ward Emma my cuz and I got a rose from my dad. I went up stairs to get photos with my sister Kelsi +fam and with my dad. Then Josh came over and I met his other sister and got a photo with him.

I really enjoyed the nutcracker and wish we did it for a few more extra days.
