At the movies

Category: Family Fun

Paul's winter business and hunting trips always coincide with the winter movie releases. Last year, it was Narnia, which I took Lucie and Nathan to see even though they were only two and five. Lucie took a short nap and Nathan got a little scared during the battle scenes. Still, we had a great time and the kids remember it fondly.

There are some great children's movies coming out this year, so I think we'll be going to the theater several times. We go to a big, high-end mall that is rather far away from us. While there are movie theaters closer to us, this mall has one with stadium seating and big, plush seats. Definitely worth the trip for that and a food court that has sushi or fish tacos for me, and McDonald's for the kids.

So, I guess we have a new winter family tradition. Yet, I'm a little sad about it. It would be nice if Daddy could be at the movies with us, too.
