It is hard to believe it has been seven years since we got engaged to be married. The evening of the proposal we attended the Nutcracker Ballet at Bass Concert Hall in Fort Worth and every Christmas since we have tried to either attend a Nutcracker performance or watch it on TV. This year we were able to attend a showing back at Bass Concert Hall and even did dinner at Pappadeaux's where we ate that night too. It was a great show and a wonderful night of new memories to add to our old ones of Nutcracker performances. We saw a lot of little girls there with their parents and are already contemplating whether next year will be Arianna's first time to attend. Now that we are headed back to the States permanently, this is a tradition we look forward to attending every year.
