Frozen

Frozen.  Recently, that word has been used mostly to describe the outside world around us.  It has been cold, cold, cold!  This weekend, though, Frozen meant Sarah's first movie experience!

On Saturday morning, Tom and I took Sarah to the AMC Ward Parkway theater.  We picked that theater because it has these great reclining seats in every theater.  The seats were fun for Sarah (and us!) to sit in, and there was lots of leg room between the rows so that she could stand up when she got tired of sitting.  She did a great job (although we DID visit the bathroom 3 times during the hour and a half movie!) and made it all the way through the movie with no issues.  She also got popcorn, Reeces Pieces and a Sprite, so she was a pretty happy girl regardless...

Also, the movie was super cute.  Even Tom admitted that it wasn't bad!

Rollin'

Sarah loves going to the store with us.  Her absolute favorite place to visit is Costco.  Seriously.  The other night, Tom picked her up from school and took her out for a bit so I could clean the house.  When we told her that she would get to go on an "adventure" with Daddy, she said, "I want to go to Costco!"  Crazy kid.

If Costco isn't an option, she will happily settle for the grocery store.  She likes Hy-Vee because she gets a cookie and (if we're lucky and can find one) she can ride in a race car shopping cart.  She likes Trader Joe's because she gets samples and can push her own little shopping cart around the store.  On our last two trips to Trader Joe's, however, Sarah has discovered a new reason to love the little shopping carts - she fits in them just right!
