This movie night was just plain fun. We had been seeing the Prep & Landing commercials for a week so we had time to get good and excited. I found some fantastic printables on the Disney website including a Get-Ready-For-Santa kit, Character Playset and Ornaments. Zoë got herself (and her very favorite stuffed animal, Twila)… read more »
Family Movie Night: Kit Kittredge
Over the last few months Zoë has started branching out and watching non-cartoon movies. It has been such a nice chance. She is such a sensitive little soul and many of the "big kid" movies frighten or bore her. Kit Kittredge did neither. We loved it. Zoë has recently become obsessed with American Girl dolls… read more »
Family Movie Night: TinkerBell and the Lost Treasure
Admittedly this was another movie that was a "Zoë and her friend" movie instead of us watching as a family. It did teach me one valuable lesson though: don't buy the movie unless you are confident that your child will watch it more than once. I thought for sure Zoë would love this movie and… read more »
Family Movie Night: Monsters vs. Aliens
Monsters vs. Aliens may have been our favorite FMN of the entire year. Not because of the movie (which was fun) but because we got to watch it with our favorite Birrs. We were in Spokane to celebrate Grandpa Birr's 60th birthday and I brought along some movie night supplies. You can't watch a movie… read more »
Family Movie Night: Scooby Doo and the Alien Invaders
Family Movie Night and Halloween really should go hand in hand, at least when you have little ones that don't go trick-or-treating for hours. The sun came out just long enough for us to trick-or-treat around the block, which was plenty of time. Zoë got to see her friends and we were able to get… read more »
Family Movie Night: Toy Story
I went all out for Toy Story movie night. You can't tell from looking at the pictures because we were having so much fun that I almost forgot to take any! Has that ever happened to you? We had Zoë's husband and the in-laws over for dinner and a movie. We adore their family. It… read more »
Family Movie Night: Ant Bully
I have to be honest, I didn't actually watch this movie. It was more of a Zoë and her friend watching while I had a Mommy play date of my own. However, the girls seemed to enjoy it! We watched it on streaming Netflix. If you have never tried their instant streaming, I would highly… read more »
Family Movie Night: Igor
The other day I had someone leave a comment asking me if I had ever done a "Toy Story" family movie night. Why yes, yes we have. What? I didn't post about that? Um, yeah…. I know that it has been a while since I posted about family movie night, but that comment prompted me… read more »
Family Movie Night Recap, Part One
I can't believe I haven't posted our Family Movie Nights since March! Geez, what a slacker. I am breaking this up into a few posts because I need to edit pictures from a few movies. My sweet husband had my monitors professionally calibrated for our anniversary and there is most definitely a difference between my… read more »
To Infinity and Beyond! No wait, that’s not right…
I completely forgot to post about our Family Movie Night from two weeks ago! Geez! Look at the pictures and try to guess what we watched. One clue, it wasn't Toy Story. If you guessed Space Buddies, you would be correct. We saw a commercial for it a few weeks back and I immediately went… read more »
