The NUTCRACKER

Braelyn, Lacey Merrill, Kambria and Baylee Bowman

were so excited to go on stage.

This was her first Nutcracker performance.
Raising the Barre Dance does a Nutcracker Performance every year.


This is the beginning tap and ballet class ages 4-6.
They are next to perform SUGAR SUGAR.

SaNta

The anticipation is building to talk to Santa.

We were very lucky to have Santa visit at the Ward Party.

Before we left for the party Braelyn said she may be too nervous

and shy to tell Santa what she wanted for Christmas.

She realized this was very important otherwise Santa

wouldn't know

what to bring her Christmas Day!

As you can see Braelyn got over being shy.
She became very comfortable on Santa's
lap and put a leg up.
She CRACKS me up sometimes!

The snow was so fresh and fluffy Brae had to try some.

Don't worry it was clean.
She loved it and made a few SNow AnGeLS!

Gingerbread House

Braelyn is at a fun age when you can do crafts.

She has made a few Christmas things.
Here is our beautiful gingerbread house.
Frosting icicles and candy galore.

OH CHRISTMAS TREE, OH CHRISTMAS TREE

I love decorating our tree.

Braelyn loves getting all the decorations out.

Braelyn always thinks that Christmas is the next

morning after we decorate our tree. Next year I am getting

a advent calender so we can count the days down.
