Merry Merry Everything! Christmas 2010

Anne Craig in a vintage 1950's dress that was worn by my Mom and my Aunt Craig. Gamba would be so pleased. Her preservation of their old dresses was worth it soooo much. Thank you Gamba!!!

Warehouse Gymnastic Presents.....THE NUTCRACKER- directed by Aubrey Whittington

It was pretty neat this holiday season that Anne Craig was part of the production of The Nutcracker. I guess I let the sentimental flashbacks get the best of me from time to time because I was in fact in Aubrey's first production of The Nutracker some 26 years ago in 1984 as a soldier and in 1985 King Mouse. Yes, Aubrey Bell Whittington is a legend around here in our family. Rock Star status to me. She makes all the sets, costumes, and choreographs each move of each performer. Also, keep in mind she is 72 years old. Yep, that's right. Pretty remarkable indeed!! Anne Craig played a little girl, a Spanish Dancer and a Spanish Doll. She really had a great time and did a wonderful job. We were most proud!
