Oh man did we have the most fun day off today! I knew I had the day off so I had plans to take the kids out, but then Larry mentioned he also had the day off and I knew I had to rearrange things so we could make it a fun family day.
We started our day off at the zoo. Since it's getting warmer, I figured a morning trip to the zoo would be the best. I had the Connect Pass to use for me and the girls so we just had to pay for Larry and Pierce. The girls were obsessed with getting as many pictures of things throughout and posing with the statues haha. We also let the kids play in the splash pad for a while. We also liked that they let you bring your own food so we could bring our own snacks and eat that all day to keep the kids happy.
After we were done there, we went to Fat Cats to see How to Train Your Dragons (the live action one) in theaters. This was our first movie as a whole family (and Pierce's first movie in theaters), we made sure to have snacks and bring blankets to make it cozy. The movie was SO cute, I highly recommend it. It's almost a shot for shot remake of the animated version, which I love. Pierce did get a little bored and wiggly, but if dragons were on the screen, he was all about it. Luckily, they had a lot of dragons on the screen to keep him entertained.
It may not sound like much, but I just love when we get to do things as a family. And first movies as a family was a huge moment I looked forward to for so long. I'm just glad it was a good movie, it made it that much better!
