Etta's First Movie!!

I have been wanting to take Etta to see a movie in a theater for a while, but I only recently felt that she might actually sit through a movie. I had been hearing great things about the movie Frozen in theaters now so I decided that I would try and take her to see it. We ended up having a bit of a "Mommy and Me" day today which was nice for both of us.

First stop was Divas & Dudes for a hair cut.

Then, we went to Chick-fil-A for lunch

And finally we headed over to the cinema. I've talked about this before, but Etta is a pretty terrible waiter-in-line person. Like, really bad at it. Ha! So, waiting in line for our tickets and then waiting in line for our popcorn was basically torture (for both of us).

But, we finally made it to our seats! Etta was kinda restless as the screen played some commercials and then previews, but she eventually settled in with her popcorn.

And then it began!

She did really well for about an hour or so and then got a case of the wiggles. She started asking to go home and I kept telling her that we would go when the movie was over (but I was prepared to jet outta there if I needed to). She settled down a little bit and then the movie was over. I think overall, the movie-going experience went well! I'm not going to go out of my way to find another movie to take her to any time soon, but if something is released that looks like something she would LOVE then we'll go for it again!

After the movie, we went up to GiGi's Playhouse so she could play and I could get a few things done. We were only there for about an hour and a half and then we headed back home.

I really enjoyed getting some one-on-one time with my big girl before she heads back to school in a few days!
