our first movie

We have waited a long time to take our girls to their first movie ever, and although I was still a little nervous about chasing them around the theater and shhhhing them for two hours, to my delight they (mostly) stayed in their seats, quietly paid attention, and absolutely LOVED it!!! Every part of the experience was new and so much fun for them! We had a ball.

Seeing the entrance of the theater was like arriving at a carnival! They both literally ran up to the counter excited about all of the candy and food!

Sammi was adamant that she wanted popcorn, pizza, nachos with cheese, a pretzel, and about 5 different candy boxes. :) We settled for popcorn and nachos (which was our lunch - although super unhealthy, it was quite fun!)

Sammi got to put the butter on our popcorn...

They both loved the movie and loved the popcorn and nachos too! I couldn't believe how much popcorn they ate....as much as the adults!

At the very end of the movie Natalie got restless and we let her walk up and down the stairs next to us. She was great about staying quiet, and it really wasn't a problem since it was a weekday matinee and there weren't many people there. After we came out, I wanted a photo of them by the poster, but it was so bright after sitting in the dark theater that it was hard for them to open their eyes!

Thanks, Sammi and Natalie, for giving us such a memorable and fun first movie experience together!!!! XOXO
