Family Night

Last night, we attempted to have a family home evening, by going to a movie... I know, not what you are "supposed" to do, but whatever. We went to go see this...

But the stupid theater was full, no seats for the four of us-- they had us pay for Sydney, we thought she deserved a seat-- so we had to go see this instead. I was really bugged at first- I am sure that half the people in the Narnia movie did not pay for the seats their children were sitting in, and that is RUDE (and freaking cheap, since tickets were only .50 each). But we did get a free movie out of it, even though I felt cheap for accepting it! So the next one is on them. Well, I guess it may as well be, since we spent $10.25 for a popcorn and a drink.
The crowd in Nim's Island was a bit different. Syd would have been fine (normally is at the movies) with the million kids in Prince Caspian, but it was all old people in Nim's Island. Not exactly the crowd that overlooks loud kids. Needless to say, I stood for most of the movie, rocking an obnoxious child (she was cute though, hard to be mad at her) in my arms. Fun times at the movies. Next time it will have to be the drive-in (after the free one!).
