Romeo & Juliet by the Russian National Ballet Theatre

In the past couple of years we have been able to see Lydia a couple of times when she has traveled here with the Russian Ballet. Matt taught and baptized Lydia years ago while serving his mission in Russia. We have been to the Nutcracker in Daytona Beach, Sleeping Beauty in Jacksonville and now we got to see Romeo & Juliet in Fort Pierce. It was so neat that she happen to be here the weekend that Greg and Wendy were here. It worked out perfectly because my sister Kim watched our kids so we could go! The ballet was beautiful and then after it was a treat to be able to go back stage and see Lydia. I LOVE hearing she and Matt converse in Russian. It is amazing to me that Matt still remembers so much. Lydia was so funny because as the dancers were exiting she would grab them and make them take pictures with us.



This is a picture with Romeo and Tybalt and it totally cracks me up because they totally cut Matt right out of the picture :)



And then in this picture I am totally came between Romeo and Juliet :)

We loved finally being able to meet Lydia. She is a breath of fresh air! I can see why she is so loved by all! And we really did LOVE the ballet. What an all around treat!
