Fun Friday

Troy and I love having lazy Friday nights with the kids. We feed them dinner then pile up in front of the television to watch a movie that they have never seen. This isn't a hard thing to do since they haven't really seen that many movies. This past Friday, Troy rented The Little Mermaid. It was at Blockbuster for .99 and we have it for five days...can you beat that? Anyway, Troy got the kids M&M's and popcorn and we made a pallet on the floor. They had a blast getting ready for the movie. While getting settled, Hayes decided to distribute his popcorn all over the pallet. After cleaning that up we were able to start the movie. They loved it...every second of it. Me being the over-protective mom that I am, cringed at the evil scenes and the dark side of the movie, but it didn't bother the kids one bit. Hayes hung out with Caroline until she got up and started dancing, then he came to the couch to sit with me. He wanted to play with the camera, so I taught him how to take a picture....then we took one of ourselves. He thought it was so neat....oh the little things in life ;)


Troy does such a great job planning our family nights and I love when they happen. The kids are on their best behavior and we really get good quality time as a family. I can't wait for our next one....
