Pizza and a Movie Night

Inspired by our wonderful friends, the Warmkas, we started our own "Pizza and a Movie Night." However, there was one hitch. Both of the kids ate pizza with us but only one, Audrey, watched the movie. We watched IMAX: Deep Sea. Amazing movie. Narrarated by two of my favorite actors: Kate Winslet and Johnny Depp.

The pizza was courtesy of Papa Murphy's. Yummy take and bake!

We can't wait until "Pizza and Movie Night" becomes the real deal. Something that Matt and I pray and strive for is that our children would want and even prefer to be at home with us. We know this is a long stretch but nothing is impossible with God. We've seen other families do it, so there is hope!

I love it! David and I tried that last Friday too and had the same result. There was no way Jacob could stay up. Our movie: Chicken Little. About 5 minutes into it Emma asks, "Mommy, how many days does this movie go on?" She was so tired! We learned to start much earlier in the evening!!
Much Love,
Keri

Great times. We do "Parker Time" every Thursday night. Our kids look so forward to it every week. Refreshing.

What an honor for the tradition to spread! Over the past 4 years in this beautiful desert, we can honestly say it's one of the few traditions that has withstood the test of time and everything else...nothing like spending the end of the week together at home as a family, snuggling on the couch. Riveting movie selection for you inauguration :) ...though I think our movie last Friday was a documentary on the Iditarod...amazing that the kids keep wanting more...
