| Over the weekend, I went to the campground where my Mom & Dad and two brothers each have a seasonal campsite. My oldest brother and I were going to hike through the woods, and look for some good photo spots. Well, I don't know how it happened, but all of the sudden, we were swarmed by children. "Can I go? Can I go?" LOL!! So, we checked with their parents and made sure it was okay for them to go with us, and we all hiked into the woods. We didn't get quite the photos we were expecting, but we had a lot of fun. We were doing head-counts along the way, and the children, for some reason, thought that that was hilarious! :Hahaha: But with that many children along, I didn't want to get back and find that I'd left one under a toadstool or something.  But I felt like Maria Von Trapp with all of those children tagging along! :Hahaha: I almost taught them how to sing the "Do Re Mi" song.  | |

| Uh-oh... we might just have to revive that Little House version of "My Favorite Things" in your honor, Savannah. Remember that thread??  | |

| I FOUND IT!!!! :Hahaha: - Rob wrote:
- Funny, Savannah. This reminds me of the scene in The Sound of Music where the kids are afraid of the thunderstorm, so they all crowd onto Maria's bed. After you finish "Grandma's Feather Bed," maybe you can break into a a few verses of "My Favorite Things." ;)
Oh! You could sing a LHOP version of it:
Laura's two apples and Pa Ingall's fiddle,
Caroline's pancakes hot off of the griddle,
Isaiah Edwards so drunk that he sings,
these are my favorite Little House things... :mrgreen:
(Everyone feel free to add a verse!) - Rob wrote:
- HA! Somehow my avatar of Moe just doesn't go with The Sound of Music.

(Everyone feel free to add a verse!) [rotfl2] Loving it Rob, now for the next verse..........
Mary's blue eyes and Laura's long braids,
Pencil and slate and getting good grades,
The big school bell as it begins to ring,
these are my favorite Little House things... [dance] - Rob wrote:
- Good one, Rhonda!
Half-Pint surviving the TVLand edits
to run down the hill as they're rolling the credits,
spreading her arms out as if they were wings,
these are my favorite Little House things... - Rhonda wrote:
- When the crab bites
When those bees sting
When Laura's feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad [rotfl]
Original Song......I like ours better!!! [clap]
Artist: Maria Lyrics
Song: My Favorite Things Lyrics
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things
When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad
[Repeat all verses] - Ruby wrote:
- Love your lyrics Rob and Rhonda! I can just picture all of us singing that on Savannah's feather bed! LOL!!! [rotfl]

- .....I like ours better!!! [clap]
Yeah, we're way better than those Rodgers & Hammerstein jerks. :mrgreen:
Pa's skills as a farmer were only seen rarely,
but he won an award for Best Hair on the Prairie.
Harriet loved her cash register's ca-ching!,
these are my favorite Little House things... - Rhonda wrote:
- Ma's homemade pies and her homemade bread,
A dog named Bandit and a goat they named Fred,
Pa's fiddle music and the girls all dancing.
these are my favorite Little House things... [dance]
We need a special thread for this Rob!!! [rotfl] - Ruby wrote:
- [color:6293=red:6293]May I join in? :mrgreen:
The mud fight between Laura and Nellie
The firecrackers Carl got from Willie
The scene of Harriet and Blanche's kissing
These are my favorite Little House things...
I agree Rhonda. Maybe it can posted in the Playground section? - Carol wrote:
- You guys are great! Loving the LHOTP lyrics! lol [dance]
I'll see what I can do to get us signed with a label so that we can get started on recording [type] - Rob wrote:

Yeah, we've kind of hijacked Savannah's feather bed.
But one more...
Reverend Alden's preparing a sermon,
watch out for barns with disease-bearing vermin.
Deadly epidemics that last into spring,
these are my favorite Little House things! - Savannah wrote:

Go right ahead and hijack the thread! I'm thoroughly enjoying it. :) - ChristinaAL wrote:

- Rapists in masks and raccoons full of rabies,
blindness and madness and fires that claim babies.
Was this a show written by Stephen King?
These are my favorite Little House things... [shocked] - Debbie wrote:
- These lyrics are wonderful, guys![clap]
- Misti wrote:
- Can I join in? (BTW, Rob, I can picture this song being sung by Mo; just in a rough voice! :) )
Harriet yelling "Nels" and Carrie yelling "Allyssa",
the show that has two young girls named Melissa,
the show that causes milk to curdle when Nellie sings,
these are my favorite little house things... - Rob wrote:
- Alright, Misti! [clap]
What do you suppose would happen to the milk if Nellie and Moe sang a duet? Cottage cheese? [shocked] - Misti wrote:
- Throw Nancy in there and there would be curdles of milk globs everywhere!
Some non reocurring town members and a green haired Charles Ingalls,
town dances, burned barns and Doc Baker and Doc Marvin's practice shingles,
non Jenny episodes and when Nancy doesn't sing,
these are my favorite LH things... - ChristinaAL wrote:

Warped, Rob. Barney Fife tells me that that is just warped. ;) When you list it all like that, it sure doesn't sound like a wonderful family show, does it! [rotfl]
A brown jug for Edwards, that Grace once was sipping,
Green cans of paint that above doors were dripping,
Wondering who a new virus would bring,
These are my favorite Little House things....... - Rob wrote:
- Ha! Good one, Savannah. You are a bird in this world. ;)

| Thank you.  The scenery is so pretty there. I'd love to just stay there.......I was there tonight, getting the wood gathered for a big campfire with my niece and nephews. I ended up doing something really stupid, though. *rolls eyes* Most of the wood I'd been gathering was really old and dried, so it broke really easily. Even the larger pieces. . . . . After a while, I guess I didn't pay attention to how solid the wood felt. I picked up a piece of wood about three or four inches in diameter, and tried to break it across my shin, like I had the other wood............I stretched out my arms, and brought it down full force against my leg, and . . . . . . . well, this piece wasn't like the other wood. It was very fresh and sturdy, and bounced back off my leg without so much as a crack in it's outer shell. My leg didn't fare as well.......I have a large bruise, and a slight limp to prove it. :Hahaha: | |
