The Ames Family

The past weekend was spent performing in the Nutcracker. As many of you know this is a whole family affair. All the kids perform and we all help out with sets, music, anything that needs to be done. It is a lot of work but we love the experience and the kids love to perform!
Davis and Danny (his cousin) were inseperable during Nutcracker! They always have a great time together. We don't have a day go by without him asking for Danny to come and play!
Alycia doing a little twirl in her Party Scene dress! The girls loved their party scene costumes and parts that I do not think that we got any other pictures of any of the other costumes. The began in the party scene and ended in party scene for their finale!
Lillie also twirling!
Cal spent a lot of time in this position. He got really sick of pack n play! I also carried him around in a hiking backpack. He loved being able to see all the kids and I loved being able to have my hands free to change costumes, sets etc.

Here is a pose of the kiddos. After 3 days 7 performances this is what you get. They were all tired and did not want to pose for us.
