UP


Last night we grabbed a bite to eat at Costa Vida and then headed to The Pictureshow to see UP. What a great little movie! I love it when we can take the whole family to the theater. The kids LOVED it, and even Mo watched the 1st half, completely fixated on the screen. . . well, the screen and the popcorn. She really liked all of the "puppies" on the movie, and she was panting the whole time she was awake. Truthfully, she would have been panting if the movie was about horses. I'm pretty sure she thinks that all four-legged animals pant. Then, she fell asleep, or maybe she hyperventilated from all of the panting. One way or another, she sweated soundly through the second half of the movie on my lap.

Paige was cracking up through the whole movie. The theater is of the only places that I can think of off the top of my head where her volume issue is not an issue. Thank goodness.

Ty loved it too, and he gets a lot of the inside jokes now. It's fun to watch him laughing when none of the little kids are. I think that it really makes him feel grown up.

Before the movie started we saw a friend outside of the mall. She snapped this picture of all of us with my little point and shoot. I'm so proud of Shane for not making a face. (Note to self: please stop trying to pull of that hairdo. . . it does absolutely nothing for your receding hairline.)
