Last Saturday we too the kids out for a day of fun. We took them to a place they could burn off steam first, which my husband thought he lost his business card. Thank god he found it before we cancelled it. We drove my car so that's how the mix up started.
Anyway after the burn steam session we than went to the movies played a few video games and paid for the tickets to see the How to train your dragon movie in 3D. Show time was about 2 hours away so we walked over to this restaurant and had an early dinner. I had a strawberry adult drink since I was not driving. Than we drove over to the mall and let the kids pick out video games at the video store, of course we got stuff too lol. I got a yoga game for the Wii and the just dance game for Wii. After that we went and saw the movie of course the kids wanted popcorn, this was also my husbands 1st 3D movie lol at 41 years old 7 kids total and his first 3D movie, LOL.
The movie we adults liked it our kids, my son asked my husband a few times is it almost over a few times. My daughter set next to me and she had on her 3D glasses and was laying in the chair stiff as a board with her mouth open, I am not sure if that means she liked it or not but she was not moving she was just looking lol.
If you could see how she looked you would understand lol. Anyway it was a touching movie about a son who was treated badly and felt he would never be good enough for his father. One point I saw was listen to your child don't try to make them be something they don't want to. The father and town felt the son was not a man if he could not kill a dragon. If your kid wants to be a member of the chess club and you want him to play football, don't push him to do what you feel he should. Support what he wants even if it goes against your feelings.
Anyway there was 2 kiss moments and in the end the little boy lost part of his leg. Which the dragon 'tooth less' he called him, in the beginning of the film the dragon needed the little boy because he was hurt and could not fly, so the sun who was good at designing and making things made the dragon a wing extension so he could fly. When the little boy lost part of his leg he than needed the dragon when he first had to walk. It was like they both were in the same boat and needed each other, because the dragon would never fly again with the wing extension and the son would never walk again with out the leg extension.
To my husband and I the movie was touching and had good moments. To my kids ages 6 and 7 they were so so. I would not mind seeing it again.
My husband is committing to us all going out twice a month. We shall see, he works a lot and travels so we shall see, but I love the fact that he is putting forth effort to make me and us happy. He even took our son to OT the other day, which is a total first lol.
The next movie I want to see is Why did I get married too, which we won't be able to do until sometime next week.
