After the "snow day" on Friday that left Tyler out of school, staying home all day Saturday, and only getting out of the house to go to church on Sunday, we were in desperate need of an outing today. President's Day, Mardi Gras break, or whatever you want to call it, has Tyler out of school again today and tomorrow!
So, we decided to finally go see "Alvin and the Chipmunks, the Squeakquel" in the theater. Tyler decided to wear his Alvin and the Chipmunks t-shirt, and they both wanted to get a picture with the Chipmunks at the front of the theater. (And we forgot to get Tyler to take his jacket off to see his t-shirt in the picture!)
It was so good to get out of the house, hear them giggling, get a break from the housework (and the annoying dog), and have fun together. Tyler even said, "Thank you for taking us to the movie, Mom!"
Movie tickets: $21
Popcorn, candy & drink: $15 (highway robbery)
A "thank you" and giggles from my boys: PRICELESS!
Such cute munchkins & fun to get out of the house. I even get cabin fever as a nanny and love that feeling of fresh air and a change of scenery - especially when there's a "special outing" involved. :)
ReplyDeleteTyler's "thank you" is so sweet.
Yay! When we took our kids to see it on Callie's birthday, we had the whole theater to ourselves. We told them we planned it that way. Fun times!
ReplyDeleteFun!! I was wondering what y'all did with all that time off.
