It has become a tradition for us to join Melanie in Valdosta for the children's performance of the Peach State Summer Theater Series. This year, however, there was no children's show in the line-up. The closest thing to a children's show was The Sound of Music, so we decided to go see that. We met up with Granny Mel for a nice lunch before the play. We asked the kids where they wanted to eat and they all said Chic-Fil-A. After vetoing that choice, we decided on Olive Garden. The show was really, really good. The actress that played Maria is going to go places- mark my word. Even though it wasn't a "kid's show" per se, our kids loved it. They were captivated the whole time. The kiss between Maria and Captain Von Trapp especially got their attention. Owen looked at me and gave me the "ewww" face when that part happened. Judging by the choruses of "doe, a dear, a female dear..." that I have been hearing off and on around the house this week, I'd say that the play definitely left an impression.
