Cars 2

Opening Weekend... you can bet we were there!

(This wasn't Leah's first movie experience you know... We went to our first Crybaby Matinee when she was 3 or 4 weeks old, I think. And pretty much every single Tuesday of her life for the next 7-8 months we had our 1:30 date at the Angelika. Many times one or both grandmas joined us and sometimes other friends and other babies too! But this was her first time as a big girl.)

Got $5 tickets! Did you know that the first show of the day at CineMark is always $5??? It totally made Kevin and I want to go on our movie date nights at 10am from now on!



THIS IS SOOOOOO EXCITING!!!!


All she could talk about was having juice AND popcorn AND candy at Cars 2! Her little snack box was heavy and I'd told her to hold on tight!!


She's got her booster and her daddy!

And her very own Cars cup...

A few minutes into the movie she hollered "FINN McMISSLLLLLLLE!!!!!!!" But that was her only outburst.

She enjoyed the entire movie but then had to miss the last 5 minutes to go to the little girl's room. She ate her popcorn and her pink laffy taffy... and couldn't have been happier with her "first" movie experience. At one point during the second hour of the movie she asked me to hold her... this reminded me of all those CryBaby Matinee's so long ago. :)

She happened to see a preview for the new Winnie the Pooh movie coming out this month... and her Daddy promised her that we'd take her to see it next! She brings it up every day. :)

HA! They saw us coming didn't they with the Winnie the Pooh trailer. Burke is also mentioning it quite frequently, asking when we can go. Almost as if he doens't want me to forget it's coming out soon. So glad there is another fully appropriate movie to take him to in this summer heat!
