We watched Land Before Time, which they had never seen before, and which was the perfect length (just over an hour).

Rainy day activity, or an easy way to "best mom" status
I take the kids to a park after school most days. Since all the parks are wet from the recent rain, I wanted to do something fun for them at home. I remembered the family movie idea from a MOPS speaker last year, so I created tickets, labeled our front door, set out the concessions, etc. I presented the tickets to the kids when we got Nate from school, and they had to wait on the front porch when we got home, tickets in hand, while I finished setting up (i.e., popping the popcorn).
They loved it.

You are the best mom! Glad you're mine!!!
You are SO cute!
This inspires me to get our Family Movie Nights back in full swing.
Oh, and isn't it SO sad when Littlefoot's Mom dies? I cry every time. I remember when Bennett was newly 3, he would go through the house saying, "Mudder? Muuuuuder!" (Mother) in his best Littlefoot voice. So sweet.
What a wonderful idea!!That's the kind of memory they will always remember. I love hearing about it. L&K Nannie
Case - I remember hearing about Bennett's Littlefoot voice.
The movie the kids have wanted to watch a few times lately that gets my every time is Babe. "At'll do, Pig. That'll do." Time to cry. :)
Oh! And Old Yeller. Definitely a mom-crying-from-the-kitchen movie.
Wonderful memories are being created, Katie! I love reading about them!
