AFTER 2 YEARS, WE FINALLY DID IT!

After 2 very long years, Andrew and I took the plunge...

WE WENT TO THE MOVIES!!! (What did you think we were going to say??)

Since Noah was born, we haven't really had a chance to go out to the movies. Every Noah-free moment is spent either 'doing something we can't do while he's around' (eg, housework, moving furniture, cleaning, etc) or sleeping.

Andrew and I both decided it was time to end the cycle, and head out to the movies. What movie did we choose after our 2-year hiatus? Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull! It was great. So maybe it's not Oscar-worthy or a Cannes Film Festival Winner... But my goal is to spend time in the theater, being entertained by a movie that doesn't involve any of the following terms: jumbo loan; mortgage-backed securities; OFHEO. You get the idea.

My goal in seeing a movie is to temporarily suspend my vision of reality and be entertained by what Hollywood has to offer! All of my goals were achieved with this film. It was action-packed, and I totally loved the Indiana Jones theme song (call me cheesy, but you all know you like it, too). I was not bored, nor did I yawn once during this movie. If I were a critic, I'd give it 3.5 out of 5 stars or a "B" - not as good as the others, but definitely entertaining and worth the 2 year wait.

Next up - Sex and the City.

Two movies within 10 days...it's going to be a crazy few days!

Two years Anna!

OK, let's not make it another 2 years... you all have to get out more! We have to do a playdate for Noah and Sadaia so you two can get to the movies more often! :)
