Movie Night

Our dear neighbors (don't start "tearing" things up again, Mary!) invited us over for a MOVIE NIGHT last night. We started off with a wonderful feast of pizza and salad. The boys were (strangely) not hungry...perhaps it was all the running around that needed to be done. "The Babies" came over as well with their Mommy and Daddy, so there was way too much to do besides eating. I will say, however, I believe we three Mama's actually got about a solid 15 minutes to have adult conversation!!! (Thanks to Mr. Andy and Mr. John for kid wrangling!!!)
We then retired into the basement for a movie extravaganza complete with popcorn, Twizzlers (YUM!), Swedish Fish and Gummie Worms (which, I just realized, never even got opened!). The ladybug tent was set up and all little people had their pillow pet friends to snuggle upon. We settled in for a nice....relaxing .....quiet evening.....HA!


The quiet lasted as long as the snacks....and then.....

There was much multi-tasking going between watching the movie, sticking Swedish Fish to legs (NOAH!), playing, flinging of Twizzlers and other such mayhem.
Occasionally, a scene of the move would grab the attention of all!
Yes, that is little McKenzie front and center with the Big Kids...never to miss out on the action!

Perhaps getting a LITTLE tired here....

By the time the movie was over, Alex was half asleep on my lap, Livi was settled on the floor, but Noah and Maddie were still going strong arguing over who got to play with various toys. All in all, a great way to spend the evening! Good Movie, GREAT Friends...Awesome Times!
