May I Recommend?

Going to the movies is just about my favorite way to drop $40.00 with the boys. At that price, of course, we have to be selective on what we'll see. For instance, Kung Fu Panda? SOOO not getting my money. Space Chimps? Same to ya. That's what the Blockbuster Dollar Rental Coupon is for -- maybe. But, Bee Movie? Absolutely. Saw it three times, actually (but one of those was Grandma's treat). Journey to the Center of the Earth? TOTALLY.

Today we saw that for the second time. Best movie of the summer (besides Dark Knight, of course). It's AWESOME. And, it's 3-D, therefore making it TOTALLY AWESOME. This is one of very few movies where I can say every part is riveting... you can't take your eyes off it! The story is great, and the adventure is non-STOP. And it's a theater movie all the way. Not just for the 3-D, but because it's a "big" story. You HAVE to see it! The part where the kid crosses the magnetic field... WHOA.

I feel a Mastercard commercial coming on...

Tickets to Journey to the Center of the Earth matinee for the second time? $35.00

Boxed candy (bought at Target on the way, to save money, and snuck into the theater in Mommy's purse and Daddy's pockets?) $4.50

Seeing your sweet baby boys wearing 3-D glasses at the movies? Priceless.


Please note this picture was taken after the movie was over... And if you were among the six people who saw us during the unannounced trip to IL, I'll bet you can guess which one is Parker. :)

In Differences in Disposition news, Cable maintains his "Cool Like Fonzie" easy-going nature, while Parker digs his hole a little deeper in the land of frequent meltdowns. I just hope he doesn't decide to set up permanent residence there. This one was over putting his glasses on for a picture. "I don't want to put my glasses back on... Waaaaaaaaaaa..." This is such a GREAT picture, don't you think? haha!
