It's back! Movie Night! We were slowing starting to implement this months ago but then football season happened, Ben's weeknight schedule was completely unpredictable and I wasn't organized at all to undertake a full-fledged memory making movie night. I spent the last couple weeks researching, planning and preparing movie nights to cover us for the next 6 or 7 months. Tonight was our first night and we watched The Little Mermaid.
Normal movie nights will have a craft or activity that kind of matches the movie and the dinner is movie themed. Tonight, for example, we had peanut butter and jelly(fish) sandwiches, seashell pasta and starfish fruit (clementine oranges.). For dessert we had mermaid tails (pistachio pudding), which Connor thought was hysterical.
Another fun one is for Tangled. We have long haired spaghetti (buttered spaghetti noodles), roasted butternut squash and for dessert we have blue jello with an orange slice on top (kind of like the boat on the water).
Anyway, Connor is really getting into it and I am so excited for next week- The Fox and the Hound. It is all about friendships....unlikely friendships, at that and in perfect timing for Valentine's Day. Stay tuned, I will actually take pics next week!
