Yesterday I told you to watch Facebook and Twitter at about 7pm (EST) for some status updates that would be sure to make you go hmmmm.....
So did you?
Did you watch Facebook and Twitter?
Because if you didn't, here's what you missed.
The Lazy Dad in Lederhosen.
THAT'S what you missed alright.
Now. Here's the question you've all been asking....
(well, no one actually asked it, but I'm pretending you did, mkay?)...
WHY is The Lazy Dad in Lederhosen?
What a good question!
I'll give you a hint...
No, we aren't Catholic, but this does have something to do with Lazy Dad being in Lederhosen.
Okay, here's another hint....
Someone wearing CURTAINS.
Do you get it yet? Huh? Huh?
How about this hint (it's a big one)....
Hmmm... what does a man in Lederhosen, a Nun, a person dressed in Curtains and a Traveling Singer have in common?
Anyone?
Anyone?
Beuller?
Why, THE SOUND OF MUSIC of course!!!!
Yes, last night at our church we hosted a Sound of Music Sing-a-Long! It was SO. MUCH. FUN.
The costumes people came in and the acting out people did were hilarious. We laughed till we cried. A lot.
Here was my costume. Let's see if you can figure it out...
Excuse the wild crazed look in my eyes. That's what being a Doe, a deer, a female deer will do to you I guess. That and a crappy cell phone camera.
Another really clever costume was this one...
Anybody have a guess???
How about a brown paper package tied up with string?!
SO. CLEVER.
But the costume that literally made me laugh till I cried buckets, BUCKETS of tears, was this one...
Our Children's Director (who was pictured in the curtains up above) also came as the lady that wins 3rd place in the singing competition and bows over 50 times.
I. DIED. LAUGHING.
I seriously lost control.
Especially when she did this during the movie... (sorry it's so dark!)
**You may have to refresh this page to see the video**
Yes, that's about when I lost control completely. Uh, do you hear all that laughing behind the camera? That'd be me.
Even long after she had finished her bowing I still couldn't gain control. Tears. Lots of laughing tears. GOBS of laughing tears.
I love her.
We also had a crew of people act out the "So Long! Farewell!" song. Which was also another laughing tear jerker, but I didn't have the good sense to record that one. DOH!
So. That's what I did last night.
I'm betting it was way more fun than what you did last night, now what'n it?
Too funny, and you're right - it was better than what I did last night. Mine involved sitting here at the computer for the most part.
ReplyDeleteI love your costume! Tell Lazy Dad to stick to regular pants though. LOL
That sounded like loads of fun. I was laughing at you laughing....it is contagious!!!
ReplyDeleteI would've been Liesl, for sure. She is my favorite. I used to dream of having a pink dress like her's and dance around w/ the handsome Rolf. Derrick hates watching the movie w/ me b/c I quote every, and I mean EVERY, word and sing every song (even if I can't hit the high notes, I squeal them out). Love it!
ReplyDeleteJust gave you a thumbs up on Top Mommy Blogs.
ReplyDeleteCool about the Sound of Music dress up, sing along at your church. You're right, lots more exciting than what I did last night which was watching TV.
Looked like so much fun!! You sound like a very fun person: I love people who can laugh so hard that they cry! :)
ReplyDeleteThat is fantastic.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! This is TOOOO funny! What a cool idea.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for joining in on the Mingle Monday fun! I hope you have a great Christmas week!
Merry Christmas!
Looks like you had a blast! Merry Christmas!
