movie extravaganza

Today we went to an event put on by Cam's previous school. It was fun to see his old teacher and Cam even won a cake his first time around the cake walk. :) When we got home, Chris had a great idea. That morning we had rented Toy Story 3. Rather than just let the kids watch it, he thought it would be fun to make it more of an event. So I gave it the name, "Movie Extravaganza", and we made it a little more fun.

Chris set up our living room by moving the coffee table and placing a bunch of pillows down. We next had Cam "purchase" tickets for the movie using his pretend cash register. He next purchased popcorn and we all settled in for the movie. It was such a fun afternoon and I was surprised at how long Kendall lasted before she started wandering around while we watched. We will definitely do this again as it makes for a fun, yet relaxing, family afternoon. :)

Paying dad money for our tickets:



We love this picture because of Kendall. Nothing cuter than a big baby belly peeking out.



Midway through we took a break for a special treat. We made Smores for the first time. Kendall loved the chocolate.
