Thanks to the Roco family for Kara's new bike. She is a little scared of it but hopefully by this summer she'll be zooming down the sidewalk! (Aunt Tricia gave her the cool basket and really loud horn!)

Family Movie Night
I got this idea from the Heater family. Last week, we watched the movie Bolt, ate popcorn and called it "Family Movie Night."
Kara was so excited that she brought all her pillows and blankets to the basement.
She insisted eating her popcorn with a spoon...
But I'm not sure about the movie choice for her. She scares easily. Every scene was a scary part for her and she spent most of the movie like this.
That's why later in the week, Luke and I decided to go see Monsters Vs. Aliens by ourselves. We just told her the name of the movie and that Miss Katie was going to babysit her and she was fine with us leaving her home. Luke and I liked Monsters Vs. Aliens (and Bolt) but are not sure if we would recommend it to families with really little kids (just a couple of jokes that were slightly off color but would probably go over little kids' heads). Both the family movie night and date night at the movies were a fun time!!!

It's Not Easy Being Green
I love cheap and I'm trying to be more environmentally aware (see Linda for more information). I use IKEA reusable bags when I go grocery shopping. I love them because they can fit A LOT groceries and they were only about 59 cents. But I was looking for the normal size resuable bags. While at Walgreens one day, I saw that they had a coupon for 3 bags for 99 cents!!!
So I bought three. When I went to the checkout I realized I left my wallet in the car. I told the lady I'd be right back. When I returned, she had bagged the bags!
So much for trying to be green. Here is the saying on the bag that made me laugh:
"Go Green...I Did!!!" Well, I did after this trip!
