World Premier of the Christmas Spectacular Arena Tour!

This weekend was so much fun! And so exciting! I can't even describe how amazing it is to preform in a huge arena with over 10,000 people cheering you on! I got actual chills during our curtain call on opening night as we were doing our final kickline because it was just such a surreal moment! All sorts of emotions hit me on opening night; relief, exhaustion, excitement, joy, pride- just to name a few. I'd love to ramble on about all the fun festivities of the weekend, but instead I'll give you some pics that do a better job.....I even have some pics of the show!!

This is us getting lined up to do our opening night event for publicity. We marched out as wooden soldiers in front of the Target Center, where the show preformed, and did a little salute and posed for pictures for a local charity, Tickets for Tots. Top of the show- Reindeer Rockettes! This is what you first see as the curtain rises.

This is end of 12 Days- the crazy 8 minute long tap number!! Look at that kick line! It's amazing we are still able to breathe let alone kick eye high!New York at Christmas! This is the beginning of the dance where we hop a ride on the New York City tour bus to see the sites of the city. Can you spot me?? I'll give you a hint, I'm not on the bus yet...Here we are as silly Ragdolls! The 6 tall girls are on the runway and everyone else is behind us on stage. This is one of my favorite numbers right now....this will probably change many times through the season....but its fun because we get to improve a little and be silly, plus this number goes by in a flash! My box has the "F" on the side, I'm in the second row.

More pics tomorrow....right now I've got to pack because tomorrow we are moving to Green Bay!
