We Love Lightning McQueen

If you have spent any time at our house, you know that the kids are OBSESSED with the movie Cars. So, I was excited to find out that there was a Disney matinee at a nearby theater featuring Cars! This was a great opportunity for their first movie since they would know what to expect and hopefully not be scared by the louder than normal volume.

We got there right on time, ordered popcorn, picked up a couple of booster seats, and headed into the theater. I didn't realize that theaters had booster seats. That was awesome!


For the first 45 minutes or so, they were completely zoned in to the movie. There was even a short film with a few of the Cars' characters that came on before the main feature. They got a little fidgety along the way, so they stood out in the aisle for a while (the theater wasn't very crowded), but we stayed for the WHOLE thing.......even the credits! Emery of course, loved the popcorn!

It was a great way to spend a rainy Saturday morning! I'll conclude with a riveting movie of my family watching a movie. Can't get much more exciting than this! :-)

WOW! That's impressive! We might have to take our guys to the movies...I bet that they'd love it.

I haven't been to a movie since October 2006 when I was 24 weeks pregnant! I don't know if I want to break my streak...we;'ll see.

I love how, in the first picture, you can see Pete already munching down on some popcorn. At least he used his hand...I usually just stick my tongue in there until some sticks to it...
