movie in the park


the first movie of the summer was rained out, but tonight was perfect for a movie in the park! we got in the balloon line as soon as we got there because it normally takes an hour or more. the man twists balloons for a solid four hours and could not be nicer. madelyn has a monkey on a palm tree hat, mason has batman (although he already popped the head by the time we got a picture), maddux has a dragon and manning has a yellow elephant.

manning enjoyed some of the yard games while the big kids played on the inflatables.

and there was cotton candy! surprisingly, manning was not a fan.


manning and madelyn were the only ones who opted to make the mask craft while we waited for the boys to finish the obstacle course. then we all grabbed some pizza and popcorn to snack on while we waited for the movie to start.

as the sun set, the movie began! they were playing alexander and the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. after reading reviews, i wasn't too sure that it was going to be appropriate for our kids but it was cute and they loved it!

we feel so fortunate to live in a community where they provide such a great family evening - and did i mention that it is free??!! love.

Looks, and sounds, like another wonderful family event. Was it cool? I'm seeing sweaters.
