This was a first for our family. Matt's sister and her family, Matt's parents, friends Mary Ann, Trent & DJ, and our family decided to go see "Alvin & the Chipmunks" at the Danberry Cinemas. This is a discount theater that shows movies that have been out for quite awhile and costs only $3 a person. I decided to see how the kids could handle a movie. They did fairly well. Both sat nicely in the booster seats for the first 30 minutes or so. Cody got a little restless and starting standing and saying "Hi!" and kissing Aunt Michelle and Jesse who were sitting in front of us. Carleigh who didn't take a nap earlier decided she was tired and Michelle held her and she fell fast asleep. Cody decided to fall alseep during the last 5 minutes of the show.
I think the next time we take them, I am going to opt for a cartoon-like film which will hopefully hold their attention more. When the lights went out and the screen came alive, Carleigh looked over at me with her mouth open wide and said "Wow!" Then she saw a movie preview and said ratherly loudly "F-O-X." It was a fun time and hopefully we will go again in the future.
