We took Monkey and her cousins to see Wall-E on opening day, and I don’t know who was more excited – Daddy or the kids.
The first 30 mins had no – I mean NO – dialog … yet even Monkey felt sorry for the robot when sad things happened to him. That is amazing animation and character development.
It was Monkeys first movie in the theater since Happy Feet, since she couldn’t really sit still for the entire movie at that time. We have stuck to the drive thru movies since then, but since they closed the closest one last year, we thought we would give it another shot.
She did great. She ate popcorn and candy, and even let us know when she had to potty. After a long and exhausting week, it was just what we needed.  At the discounted rates that Kerasotes offers during their “twilight hours” we were able to pile in the car and get in and out for less than $50, including five tickets, popcorn and drinks for all.
In summary, two thumbs up from this mommy – and check out your local theaters… there may be more discounts than you realize. If not, this movie is worth the full price.
Hi Angie!
Just stopping by to catch up with your blog, I’ve been offline for over a week due to a nasty computer virus. You have written some incredible posts recently (as you always do), they are always so thought provoking. The pictures of you, Travis, and Monkey from the county fair are so precious. You have a beautiful family, and Monkey is already a heartbreaker! I pray all is going well with your pregnancy, do you know yet whether you’re having a boy or a girl, or is it still too early to know? I can’t wait to hear the news!
Love, Velvia
Velvia,
I have been staying current on your blog, but have been so pressed for time lately I haven’t left many comments. I love the pictures of Drama Queen at the Art Festival – what a great experience for her!
We find out next week if the baby is a boy or a girl, and my patience is running thin – I will be almost 22 weeks when we find out and I am ready to start shopping for the room already!
Love,
A
