Cute Little Gumdrops...in the Nutcracker

Kennedy's School of Dance put on the Nutcracker again this year.
Kennedy and her friends were "Gumdrops."

Posing with the big mice.

Waiting backstage for their turn to perform. It looks like Kennedy got used to the costume being "itchy!" She even said to me (as we were watching the Sugar Plum Fairy,) "why doesn't she have to wear an itchy costume?" The fairy's costume looked even itchier to me! Kennedy was also so cute when she said to me during one of the dances, "This is so beautiful it takes my breaf away:)" We will miss our sweet little Kenz when she grows up!


Only a few strands of gold sequins had to be sewn back on in between Monday's matinee and the final show that night (after all of the backstage reindeer games:)

Yes I had to include all 10 pictures as they were so sweet!

Group hug!
Friends at preschool and at dance!

One last hug for the road!

Great job girls! Next year you probably move up the performing ranks to "candy canes!"

How cute was that!!!!! They are so sweet, and much more scrumptions than real gumdrops!!!
Sounds like Ken-d inherited the "sensitivity to ITCH" gene from her mother and grandmother G.
Thanks for sharing all 10 picts!!!!
