The Hills are Alive.....


With the Sound of Music....

Lastnight was 'Singalong Sound of Music' at Hamer Hall at the Arts Centre.
It was absolutely hilarious and a fantastic girls night out. There were lots and lots of people in costumes and some had gone to a lot of trouble to make them!

We all received a bag of goodies to help us as we watched the movie and sang along.
A picture of Maria to wave when the nuns sing "How do you solve a problem like Maria"?
A piece of curtain fabric to wave around when the kids first come out of the gate dressed in their new play clothes.
A ticket to the Captains Ball to wave around during the party scenes.
A piece of Eidelweiss to use when Captain Von Trapp was singing (you guessed it) Eidelweiss!
We also had a party popper that we had to pop when Maria and the Captain first kissed!

We had to hiss at the baroness, boo the nazis, and bark like a dog at Ralph.

Helen Razer did the introduction (dressed like Kurt Von Trapp). I hadn't seen her on anything for years and she was really really funny......

The audience was really into it and made it lots and lots of fun. Can't wait for the next one!

Good Mail

Usually my postie only ever delivers bills, but today I received 2 lovely pieces of mail.

Firstly, this beautiful package from Sherrin. Talk about speedy service, I only ordered them yesterday and they are here already. Three gorgeous floral fabric covered badges and a pretty little block print card! And they were exquisitely wrapped up with yarn and a button (I forgot to take a photo before I ripped into it so I tried to re-create the packaging). The black one will look really nice on my black woollen cardi, the blue one on my green corduroy jacket, and I think I'm going to use the orange and purple one on a scarf.



Then, in the next envelope......tickets......already.....what's happened at Australia Post? Posties are never that speedy. Must be a slow mail week.
