the hills are alive...

...with the sound of music.

please.

please.

PLEASE

tell me you love this movie.

i adore it!

i remember watching it as a little girl. 

being in awe of the colors and the beauty and the dresses and oh! the singing.

it came on t.v. tonight. 

just when my mama was putting halle in bed. 

so livvy and i started watching it. 

i wasn't sure if she'd last through the whole thing, but i knew i wanted to watch it.

so watch it i did.

and livvy sat with me the whole time. 

and she loved it. 

it was fun to see her as she watched it.

she giggled when the kids and maria fell out of the canoe, smiled whenever they sang, 

and covered her face when the captain kisses maria. 

which is, by the way, magical.

it was so wonderful to spend the time with livvy while she saw the sound of music for the first time.

...until eleven o'clock at night.

approximately three and a half hours past her regular bed time.

and she got tired silly. it was hilarious.

she is totally my niece.

she digs old musicals and gets ridiculous when she's over tired.

such a hoot!

so, after the movie was over, we had a tiny photo booth photo shoot.

obviously.

here are the results.

crazy faces. because we're up so dang late.

ha. she actually really does like me!

she wanted to take a "fake sleeping" picture.

this kid is awesome.

and i adore her.

...shh. don't tell her mom i kept her up so late.

p.s. christopher plummer is like, so handsome.

what i wouldn't give to be maria...

also. please watch the trailer.

so long, farewell

auf weidersehen goodbye!
