So right at noon on Patrick's last day of school, Scarlet, Chandler and I went and picked him up to go and see Nancy Drew. Along the way we also picked up Danny & David (my boys BFs) and Kaylee (Scarlet's BF). That's right me and 6 kids headed off to the movies! lol
So if you know me, then you know that I am such a movie snob. I only like certain theatres and I only like to sit in certain spots, so that means that I'm always the first one there. It just makes me happy that way and less anxious. I'm fine to sit there and wait for 45 minutes... just as long as I'm in the middle sect, 3rd or 4th row from the back and if I'm with the kids, then on an aisle. Not much too ask for right?!
So here we are at Nancy Drew about 45 minutes early (I make sure the kids always bring their Game Boys to keep them occupied)...
This pic cracks me up because it looks like we're all lined up to see Resident Evil. lol!
After we'd been there for awhile we were joined by the Dalands, Daurios, Snyders, Calls, Taylors, Muirs, Chimpemberes and Hunters. We filled up half the theatre!
The movie was soooooooooooooooo great! All the kids LOVED it. I couldn't get over the fabulous costumes and sets. It just made me want to be a costume designer so badly. Dream job........
I loved that the movie was set in modern time, but anyone that came from Nancy's home town River Heights was dressed old fashioned. Darling.
After the movie I was so inspired that Scarlet and I had a Nancy Drew photo shoot. We had SO much fun and Scarlet totally got into it!
NERD ALERT... NERD ALERT:
I confess, I then purchased these items for myself-
and
I've watched these movies on
TCM (one of my fav channels) before and they are sooooooooo dang cute. I can't wait to watch them with the kids on one of our movie nights!
I warned you... total nerd alert.
I'm now off to play one of my new games... it's summer, you know!!!!
I have more to post later today-- summer kits for the kids... they turned out ADORABLE! c-ya!
