The Drive In

Saturday we decided to take the family to the drive in theater in Everett. Some friends of ours told us about it and we thought it would be fun to all go. Kendall and I have never been to a drive in before, so it was a first for the whole family! They were playing 3 movies that night. The first two movies were very kid friendly; Up and Night At The Museum 2. I figured Noah and Emma would stay up for the first one, but had my doubts about Emma staying up for the 2nd movie. Daniel fell asleep in my lap about 10pm, when the 1st movie started. It was a cute movie and Noah loved it! Emma was getting tired when the 2nd movie started (about 11:50pm). But she actually stayed up for the whole thing! She fell asleep on the way home, though. We got in about 2am. I brought Daniel in and laid him in bed. I was just going to have Kendall carry Emma in and put her in bed, and skip the whole bed time routine. But as he was laying her in bed she woke up crying. I went to see what was wrong. She was upset cause we were putting her to bed without reading scriptures and saying prayer, which is our normal bed time routine. So there we were at 2am Sunday morning reading scriptures as a family! Our children keep us on the straight and narrow...
Emma enjoyed hanging on the little pole by the car.

Daniel and Emma hanging out in the car before the movies started. Noah thought it was the coolest thing ever to watch a movie in your car! It was a nice treat to go out as a family and a fun time was had by all!

Looks like fun, at least you don't have to worry about kids staying in their seats like in a movie theater!
