Muppets movie

We went to see a movie for the first time with Colin. 
That was the intention at least.
We got everything arranged to have Maggie at Grammie & Grandad's house, packed plenty of snacks, picked a great movie matinee so we could still get home in time for nap.

Instead, we sat through, NO JOKE, almost 40 minutes of previews.  They just kept coming and coming.  During this time, Colin flew through the snacks and we lost a lot of his attention span.
So, about 15 minutes into the actual Muppets movie, Colin was ready to run the halls of the movie theatre.  Brian went out with him first, then about 10 minutes later, I took my turn and we went to the bathroom, then about 10 minutes later, Brian took another turn, then about 10 minutes later, we headed home to take a  nap.
I guess we learned our lesson about when to show up to the movie theatre.  And, we even got there about 5 minutes late, assuming there would be quite a few previews.  Sheesh!
We'll never know how the Muppets movie ended...but we can probably guess...

Colin and Daddy before the movie


So excited, ready to go in!

We all had a good time, and we'll try again sometime later.  
I mean, Colin is only 2.  We've still got lots of years for movie-seeing!
