Flora, on the left, is practicing Gingerbread. (Dorina, she is wearing one of your leotards!)
Flora übt den Polichinellentanz.
Gestern hatten die Mädchen eine von vielen Nußkknackerproben. Während sie getanzt haben, habe ich die Hälfte der Lebensmittel eingekauft. Dann habe ich sie abgeholt und wir haben den Rest erledigt. Erst am Abend waren wir zu Hause und waren ziemlich müde.
You can also see Veronika here (brown sweater), but she was already done with her parts.
Hier sieht man auch Veronika (brauner Pullover), die aber zu diesem Zeitpunkt schon mit ihrer Probe fertig war.

Do they enjoy their Nutcracker rehearsals? Are they soldiers and gingerbread? I'm so glad you can get more use out of the leotard and that Flora likes wearing it.
ReplyDeleteI think they do, although many of their friends are not taking ballet this year. Most parents were just exhausted from driving so much. So Heidi and Charlotte are the only older girls continuing. Flora is worried she cannot remember her steps for the Gingerbread part. She is a soldier and gingerbread. Veronika is a rat and an angel, Miriam is a rat, and Charlotte is Christmas Spirit (which also does the things Drosselmeyer normally does). It is so nice we got those leotards from you :).
DeleteUnsere Kids stecken auch gerade mitten in einer langen Reihe von Proben und Aufführungen. Viel Spass mit dem Nussknacker und liebe Grüsse
ReplyDeleteWas führen sie auf? Müßt Ihr dafür auch so weit fahren? Unsere Generalproben haben noch nicht angefangen. Wenn die anfangen, kann man nicht viel anderes als Tanzen machen.
DeleteMorgana always enjoyed being a rat in the battle scene. Tell Flora to practice her steps every night and then she will be fine (the girls' modern dance teacher used to say that . . I remember them often practicing while I made dinner). It's nice that Charlotte is continuing. It's fun being in a performance together . . at Christmastime :)
ReplyDeleteI will suggest that to Flora :). Jonathan's Nutcracker is the same weekend as ours, so he won't be able to see ours and we won't be able to see his. He could have also danced in ours if he had been here. But it is nice that all the girls are still in it together.
