Two of my daughters and I just got back from seeing the new Nutcracker movie at the theater. It was pretty good--not as much ballet as I had hoped, but the story was interesting. Good against evil with a twist. I really enjoyed the music. Tchaikovsky is one of my favorite classical composers. I had the privilege of playing the Finale of his 4th symphony in the Texas All-State Band back in the day, but I digress.
Before the movie, there was a preview of the new Mary Poppins movie coming out. I really can't see anyone but Julie Andrews in the part, but the new Mary said something interesting--"Nothing is ever really lost, just out of place." I thought about loved ones we've lost who are in heaven. Of course, they're not out of place there. They're only out of place from our perspective because they're not here with us. But they're not lost! And we will see them before too long.
They also had a preview of the new Lego Movie coming out in February. It looks hilarious. Anybody see the first Lego Movie? Everything is awesome!
