Quiet Evening
The house is unbelievably quiet. Greg has taken Adrianna and Bree to the Lego movie as a “Daddy/Daughter Date” and Cate is taking a nap. It is so rare for me to find myself at HOME by myself (well, almost by myself). I am loving it. But I suppose it is a good time to […]
Frozen
Took Adrianna and Bree out for a mommy/daughter date to see Frozen at the movie theatre. The movie was great! We all loved it. I enjoyed the fact that it wasn’t a movie where “true love’s kiss” cures everything or where the princess needs a prince to rescue her. Instead it is a story about […]
Star Wars
Introduced Adrianna to Star Wars (Episodes IV, V, and VI) this week. They were a big hit – yay! She was completely clueless about the major plot lines going into it (other than a few scenes that she’d seen from playing the Star Wars Angry Birds game), which made it extra fun for Greg and […]
Journey to the Center of the Earth
I am a sucker for “Journey to the Center of the Earth” movies. Even though they typically are quite different from the Jules Verne novel and aren’t realistic, I can’t help but watch and be intrigued by the concept anyway. Must be my dad’s fault, as I remember watching a version of the movie several […]
Sense and Sensibility
Karen and I went to Sense and Sensibility, the Musical.
Big Adventure
Introducing the girls to PeeWee Herman’s Big Adventure. Love this movie! It didn’t take Adrianna long into the movie to ask, “Is he [PeeWee] a kid or a grown-up?”
Date Night – The Hobbit
Thankful for my friend Becky who offered to watch the girls today so Greg and I could have a few hours to ourselves before baby girl comes. We enjoyed our time together watching The Hobbit. The movie was great! I loved how they tied in musical themes from the LOTR movies too. It was such […]
Avenue Q
Date Night at Boulder’s Dinner Theatre – got to see “Avenue Q”. It was fun to see all the puppets backstage afterward, thanks to a tour from Jeremy. Such a fun show. I’ll never look at Sesame Street the same again! 🙂
Sound of Music
Watching The Sound of Music at Adrianna’s request. I am so glad she enjoys it. We were learning a little about monks and nuns today in history and when I was explaining about nuns to her I used that movie as an example so she could get a visual and tie it with something she’s […]
