The POLAR EXPRESS on the BIG screen!

December 28:  Thursday again?!! It is SO frigid cold in Grand Rapids that I needed to think of something to do with my little fellow that would keep us nice and warm for our date night. After we "pigged" out at Mickey D's, we headed over to Celebration Cinema at Woodland ... We arrived a little early for the movie, so we walked around the mall for a little while looking at all of the pretty Christmas trees, lights, and oh ... we did stop in at the toy store while we were there.

 It was finally movie time, so we got our tickets, our popcorn, and got cozy comfortable in our seats.

 Brendan knows this movie practically by heart and he loves it. BUT he had never seen it on the big screen (nor had I!) and he truly enjoyed himself, screaming at all the good parts, yelling about the elves and the North Pole ... singing along with Billy, etc.

I'm so glad we got to do this together, Brendan. You are such a treasure.
