With Mad Dog away, in the evening I have decided to watch the Sound of Music with the boys. Each night we curl up in our loft and watch the adventures of Maria unfold.
It seems they are enjoying it. Full Speed woke up on Monday singing “How do you solve a problem like, Mari-aaah?” He also is growing quite a crush on the littlest Von Trapp, Gretel. “Mom, she’s so cute.”
T.Puzzle, well, he loves anything musical. That is how I know we are related.
As the Von Trapp children traipsed through the fields of the Austrian mountains, Full Speed was very concerned that they left their picnic food unattended.
“Who is going to clean that up?” he wondered. He’s not at all phased that the cast breaks into spontaneous song or that they end up in 47 different locations during the song’s 4 minute montage. Nope. He’s worried about the picnic. In fact, he’d really like a picinic.
T.Puzzle wants one, too. He would like to have chicken and cupcakes on the menu.
Do-Ray-Me-Fa-So it looks like a picnic may be in our future.
Know any good cupcake recipes? I bet Maria would. If nothing else, maybe I’ll break into song about it later.
