Holiday hustle...rehearsal, dinner and a show



For the past several years, our kids have been involved with holiday performances.  This will be Courtney's fourth year in the Lexington Dance Factory's Nutcracker production.  She will be in the Lollipop and Chinese dances.  Caroline will make her debut as a Mini Mouse.

Courtney will perform on Friday, December 7 for her classmates and other kids that come to the performance for a field trip.  Both girls will be in the 1pm performance on Saturday, December 15 at Transylvania University. Then Courtney will also perform in the 6pm performance on Saturday, December 15 at Transylvania University.

Tickets are still available at  https://25654.danceticketing.com/r/?tid=269&sid=0&message&fbclid=IwAR188jP4lOPQ3kdSSc3vp8N7xphiN095IWSjKi1qLpsphaXRndef8VVaa_E. I highly recommend sitting in the balcony!  It's a great view.

After rehearsals, we headed to Pies and Pints to meet our friends for dinner before watching a long-time favorite, A Charlie Brown Christmas.

We love sharing the nachos and pizza.  The girls had cheese bread and cheese pizza which were basically the same and way too much for the two of them so we had some leftovers that we dropped off to the car before the show.  The adults shared a Chicken Gouda pizza and there were only a few pieces to take home.


After dinner we walked through The Square and stopped to take a picture at the beautiful tree.  Then we went across the street to the Lexington Opera House.  We only had 10 minutes before the show started so we took a few pictures and then climbed the elegant staircase to our seats. 


Cole Wiekel did a fabulous job as Charlie Brown and the entire staff was VERY professional even with the theater lost electricity during a thunderstorm. The play was only 45 minutes and then we went downstairs to meet the cast and praise them for a wonderful performance.

Birds of Paradise - Chicken Recipe

Growing up, we ate a lot chicken. Chicken and rice. Chicken and salsa. Chicken casserole. I wasn't sure why we ate so much chicken. I thought it was just because my mom was on a Weight Watchers diet.  She would put the chicken in the oven and then go on a walk.  I always wanted to tag along on my bike. Now I understand. Chicken is quick and easy. Chicken is inexpensive. Chicken can be healthy. Now as a mom I also understand, my mom wanted to on on those walks alone...to have some peace and quiet time!
