On Friday night Kelly and I went to Blockbuster to get a few movies and while we were there, I begged him to let me rent The Sound of Music. He had no interest in watching the movie with me, but I watched it anyway and I LOVED it! I didn't realize it was based on a true story. I love movies that are based on real life events!The youngest von Trapp daughter, Gretel , was my favorite! She was so cute during the whole movie, just waiting for Maria to look at her, grab her hand, pay attention to her. Liesl was also one of my favorites! And much to my surprise, I already knew almost every song in the movie. "Sixteen Going on Seventeen," "My Favorite Things," "Do-Re-Mi," and "So long, Farewell." I loved the way the movie ended with Maria and the Captain falling in love and the children finally having a mother they loved! Now I know why it's a classic, and I hope to show it to my children some day!
