we had a snow day last week (i think). but even though there was no school, strangely lanes still had gymnastics. thankfully bubba was willing to watch the bigger girls and i was able to take the baby girl for some one-on-one time. after gymnastics we decided to pick up some goodies so we could have a movie day.
we gathered all of our comforters and pillows and blankets and made a big bed on the floor. we'd planned to watch shrek but then were surprised to discover that we don't actually own it. so then we decided on jumanji. i love that movie and didn't even think about it being too scary.
but alas, after the first game playing scene, frankie flipped out. i've never seen her panic like that. she was shaking her hands saying "no! no! turn it off! mommy, turn it off!" i tried to talk to her, hold her, calm her down, but nothing was working. i finally told her she could go upstairs while we watched, since addie and lane were still excited about the movie.
but then i felt bad that we were supposed to be having a family movie day and frankie was chilling upstairs by herself. so i sent christian and frankie off to mccombs to pick up shrek. we continued watching while they were gone, and when they came home frankie decided she would give jumanji another chance, and then she loved it. silly girl.
i love special days where we spend time together. i love my family, eating, and watching movies, so it was a pretty perfect day. only problem was 2 people were missing. we texted them our movie day pictures and told them how much we missed them.
after our movie we had some bubble fun.
and also, clean kids are angelic. seriously, so precious.
:)
it's probably because we haven't had many snow days this year (2 so far), but i definitely wouldn't mind another.
or another few even. :)
