Labor Day Weekend

 

Our weekend started at the beach with the most fabulous day.

The largest dolphin pod hung around for a bit too!

 

And, our weekend ended with a "Surprise" day for the girls.

Everything we did was a surprise :)

1. We saw Brave. Love this movie! 

(for the second time. This time at Cinema Cafe and Emma didn't fall asleep)

2. Lunch at Z pizza

3. Dessert at Skinny Dip.

 

Love Family Surprise Days!

Princess Couch

This is how the girls wanted to spend movie night.

On the Princess couch. Very cute.

Movie night has continued every week and it's so much fun. Emma even tries to watch for short periods of time but who wouldn't want to watch Tinkerbell?

We're thinking it's time to get some Princess movies, but which one to start with?

First Movie Night

Earlier this week I happened to catch the last hour of the first Tinkerbell movie on Disney channel so I quickly hit record. Lily is in Love! She can watch that 45 minute Tinkerbell movie and sit still the entire time, well until it's time to fly and sprinkle fairy dust and then she's up participating thinking she's a fairy too.

So we decided to rent Princess and the Frog and have our first real family movie night. Running time on the dvd said 99 minutes and didn't think we would last for the entire thing, but we did! Lily sat for the first 45 minutes on her pink princess couch with her blanket eating popcorn and was intently watching everything. It was nice that she came up to cuddle for the last bit.

Emma even enjoyed watching. She sat on Mike's lap, chewing on his hand loving all of the sounds, bright colors and catchy songs.

We are definitely looking forward to watching the rest of the princess movies with our girls.
