Today, we took the girls to see Toy Story 3. We all love Toy Story 1 & 2, so we were looking forward to this one. We did however decide not to see it in 3-D, well I decided anyway. The cost of those 3-D movies is ridiculous. And we went to the 1:10 showing, so we saved even more. Now if I could find a way to save money at the concession stand. Oh wait, I have a coupon, but I didn't remember it until we sat down with the large popcorn and coke in hand. It was only $1 dollar off anyway! But as you can tell the girls are always excited for the popcorn and coke. (These are probably the only times they get coke).

The movie was great, as expected. There were a few sad moments, though. It kinda of pulls at the old heart strings. When we asked Carter how she liked the movie, her response "I almost cried." I said thats ok, mommy almost did too. When we got home this is what happened next...
She just couldn't hold it in anymore! When asked why she was crying, she said "it was very sad when they stepped on the necklace and that bear pulled the baby's leg." I just had to take a picture of this sweet sensitive child. Then as everyone should expect of me, I picked her up and held her for a few moments then told her that she had to the count of ten to cry it all out, then it would be over. I held her tight counted slowly to ten, then she stopped crying. See it all works out. She got to cry it out, and didn't have to be a "drama queen" about it. I know what your thinking, that I'm harsh. But that is how it works around here, and we all live more peacefully because of it.

Oh I love it! Peacefully indeeed.
