Gnomeo and Juliet


Josie's first big screen experience. While all the schools were in session for President's Day, we thought it a good opportunity to take Josie and have the theater to ourselves for the her first movie. Much to our surprise, the theater was packed!!! Luckily it was all kiddos so we knew any talking, whining or question asking would be understood.


You just never know how your kid is going to react in different situations, and I know not why I presume she'll be difficult - because she continues to surprise us in all instances. We even brought her blankie (which usually doesn't leave the house) as added insurance in case she became restless. Ed carried her in, and at first glance of the big screen, she was no less than mesmerized!

She sat happily through the previews and 80% of the movie. The last stretch was entertained by cheese sticks and rasins, but we made it through to the very end. To us it was a monumental "first" and I think Dad loved it as much as I did! Can't wait for the next kids movies to be released.
