aaaahhh!!

lumiere (and plumette!!!!!!) are very fun babysitters and always indulge every whim that the kids have

lumi is very much the fun uncle. piggy back rides. sneaking pastries from the kitchen. hide and seek literally in the entire castle (could not find juliette for like. three hours. but it’s fine she’s fine)

plumette is the BEST auntie oh my gosh all three of the kiddos grow up loving her and confiding in her and having inside jokes???

cogsworth is the stuffy grandpa uncle who has the most obvious soft spot for these kiddos

like he’ll tell them to stop running around and then they turn and say “but coooOOGggssworrthhh” and he huffs all indignantly like why am i listening to such tiny humans

also bonus:

chip!!!!! best big brother around. he’s like. what. we’ll say fifteen years older than renée? something like that. math. whatever. anyway!!! they LOVE chip. he’s a footman now and he always brings them the best stuff from the kitchen and takes them on all sorts of adventures and races the toy boats in the pond and he’s just the best. if anyone’s seen poldark, he’s like season five geoffrey charles.

Remembering the incomparable Judy Garland on her birthday 🌹 

June 10, 1922 - June 22, 1969

“A really great reception makes me feel like I have a great big warm heating pad all over me. People en masse have always been wonderful to me. I truly have a great love for an audience, and I used to want to prove it to them by giving them blood.”

Happy Birthday, Frances Ethel Gumm ❤!

… with Donald O’Connor in “The Judy Garland Show”, 1963

“About that time [1930s], I had a terrific crush on a girl named Judy Garland. She was about two years older than me, but we’d played the same bills in vaudeville. As a ‘movie star’, I figured, I’d impress her. I didn’t. She got in movies, too!"  ~ Donald O’Connor

Judy Garland with her guest Donald O’Connor in “The Judy Garland Show”, aired on September 29, 1963.
