I had the most brilliant idea: my mom should stay after Thanksgiving to take Frances and various others (Darby and me) to the Nutcracker! Fortunately, Mimi agreed.
Unfortunately, the photos from within the theater were, well, unfortunate. But I think the girls had a good time. Frances processed everything verbally throughout the performance ("Oh, now some new ballerinas are coming on stage and they have white tutus.") while Darby was absolutely silent and never took her eyes off the dancers.
Afterwards, hot chocolate was necessary and then we walked around downtown to see the Christmas lights. Darby later told her mother the Christmas displays were her favorite part, but I'm guessing she wouldn't turn down tickets to the Nutcracker again next year, either.
