Jenine started ballet this past summer at On Q dance center in Maumee.
The studio puts on a Nutcracker Revised show, based on the Christmas classic.
This year, Jenine and her preschool classmates were in the opening pajama scene, as well as the Waltz of the Flowers.  

Nutcracker  - The Toledo Ballet
As has become tradition, we took Joey and Jenine to see the Toledo Ballet's performance of the Nutcracker at Stranahan.
This was on the 14th, the weekend before Jenine's show.

Grand Finale

After the Show
She ran up to her aunts, grandma's, and daddy...
gave everyone hugs and kisses, gushed over her beautiful flowers,
and said "Thank you everyone!" in true celebrity style!

Dress Rehearsal
'Twas the night before the show, and flash photography was allowed.
Proud parents, pictures, applause; still a long night made for a restless crowd!
