Family Walk/Run/Ride & Our First Movie Night
James wanted to get in a run today. Will's been wanting to ride his bike and loves to ride along while James runs. I told Alex we could do something together and he wanted to go for a walk and feed the fish. So we gathered up the bread and headed out.
Here's Will all bundled up and riding on the trail by the pond.
James running, Will riding:
Alex feeding the ducks. It was too cold for the fish to come up and ea the bread, but the ducks started swiming over to us the moment we appeared on the dock. In the summer the ducks ignore us, I've never seen them SO hungry!
I liked how this duck was smiling at me.
Here are a few of the ducks that were swarming around, fighting over food:
It was chilly but a nice time to enjoy the sun.
We came home and did our first attempt at a Movie Night. We had the Veggie Tales movie, The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything. We popped up popcorn to eat while watching. Will insisted we turn off ALL the lights so it'd be dark "Just like a real movie theater" (He's never been, how does he know?) Sadly, the movie was too scary for the boys. Will kept hiding behind the couch. Alex ate his popcorn and then asked if he could play with his cars. So we turned on one of the lights and watched the rest of the moving with Will coming in and out. At the end Will was happy to see how it turned out, but told me he didn't want to see it again, it was too scary. And that's why he's never been to a movie theater!

Micah and I saw that in the theater. He kept talking about the cheese curls forever… they were his favorite part.

I don’t even think Will noticed them, or found them scary too. Alex kept asking “Why are they chasing him?” It was NOT the family time I envisioned!
