Family Night

Jamie and I both have fond childhood memories of creating a home made tent in the middle of the living room and playing in it for hours. Jamie's of course were much more elaborate than any of mine with tunnels and seperate rooms. I was just happy if Kimberlee and I could figure out a way to make it stand up! (This was when Chad was not helping. His tents were always well designed.) But I knew with Jamie's engineering we could create something fun for Lainey. Saturday was cold and windy and we thought it a perfect evening for a tent and a movie. Lainey loves animals and will watch them for long periods of time so when I saw Alvin and the chipmunks I knew it was the perfect choice for our Saturday evening in. (Not only are they cute little animals...but they sing! And Jamie and I were spared the joy of watching the singing, purple dinasoar yet again!) I highly recommend the movie if you have kids. It was really cute and we enjoyed it all from our cozy, little tent. Nothing better than a family night at home.
