PRICELE$$

while we were at the beach nate and i took trace to see toy story 3, in 3D. it was 2 firsts for me... first 3D experience, and first time to see a movie in the theaters with trace (nate took him to see the dragon movie a few months ago.) we had been looking forward to our movie date the whole week. before we left for vacation, i saw this adorable shirt at target and i couldn't resist buying it for trace. so on movie day he was ready- he was wearing his new shirt and had his buzz and woody in his arms! the theater at pier park in pcb was awesome... they had booster seats so trace could sit back in the chair and not worry about falling, and they also had kid sized 3D glasses. and the best part, when you ordered a large popcorn they gave you smaller snak bags to divide it up. as long as trace had his popcorn, and a few sips of our diet coke, he was good to go!! (oh, and special thanks to meme and g-daddy for making this (lucas free) date possible! we put him down for a nap before we left, and he was still asleep when we got back to the condo 3 hrs later. can we say whooped?) :)
so excited about the movie!
trace was cracking me up with that popcorn. he kept stuffing it in. please see exhibit A below... notice his little chubby cheeks. HA. he had a mouthful!
let me just say... we def splurged for this movie date. seriously, i can't believe we had to buy a ticket for a 3 yr old. that's just insane. anywho. it was worth it, and we were living it up while on vacation :o)
mama, trace, and daddy... stylin in our 3D glasses!

tickets to see toy story 3 in 3D: $37.50.

large popcorn and diet coke: $11.25.

the look on trace's face when he saw buzz and woody on the bigscreen:

PRICELE$$!!

I LOVE this post! I love taking time with the kids individually and making them feel special! Trace's face was great in ALL the pictures! And it sounds like Mom and Dad were just as excited!

I totally agree with you on the CRAZY costs of movies! They are expensive enough without having to pay for a toddler! But in the end, as you said, totally worth every penny!

Thanks for sharing your FUN date!
