Sing-A-Long!!!

One of the great things about living where we do, is that we are within an hour and a half...two hours max...of ANYTHING!!! Take today for instance...this morning, Karolin, Aimee and I took our girls to the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood for the Little Mermaid Sing-A-Long movie! It was so much fun!!! For those of you who aren't familiar with this theatre, it is owned by Disney and most of the Disney movies are shown here when they come out. Sometimes they even do movie premieres there. It is on Hollywood Blvd, across the street from the Kodak Theatre and right next door to Jimmy Kimmel Live. And for those of you asking, yes there are "stars" on the sidewalk out in front of it. (It is on the Hollywood Walk of Fame...Tim McGraw's Star is on the opposite side of the street...I believe between the Chinese Theatre and the Kodak Theatre, for those of you who were wondering!)

Rylie and Mackenzie didn't know where we were going. When they saw this sign...they both started screaming! They were so excited!!!

Mackenzie and Shealynn...enjoying our VIP seats! Sebastian even came out and did a little dance at the end...the girls loved that!
The girls loved seeing the "real" Ariel at the beginning of the movie. She told them to sing to all the songs and to conduct the music with Sebastian. At first, they weren't too sure about the singing aloud, but as the movie went on, they were singing and dancing in their seats! A side note about the moms...see, we were there too!!! We loved singing LOUD from the very beginning! Aimee and I had a VERY hard time keeping up with Sebastian in, "Under the Sea", however! Have you ever tried to read the "real" words and sing with him...not as easy as you might think! Mackenzie kept telling us to be quiet...it was pretty funny!
Karolin and Aimee were pros at the end when we were told to, "sing like a choir"! We all just imagined our FAVORITE choir director leading us on...and we BELTED IT OUT!!!

We had such a good time with the girls...little and big! AND...for all you skeptics out there...if you ever get the chance to go to a sing-a-long movie...DO IT! There is nothing like sitting in the dark singing as loud as you want while your surrounded by good friends...and strangers too!!! (My Hairspray friends...you know what I'm talking about!)
