The blog keeps falling over, and unfortunately Mark can’t get to it to fix it through the firewall at his work, so it was down for rather a long time from Friday till late last night. I suppose that is an indication that life goes on even without the blog – but apologies anyway.
Yesterday Mark and I took Inigo to the movies for the first time. The candidates were “Puss in Boots”, which would have been our preference, and “Arthur Christmas”, which our darling boy had a strong preference for. At least it was an Aardman film, so it wasn’t a crass American extravaganza (no offence to the Septics, but the English do tend to have a touch more restraint).
He sat still through almost all of it, but sat on my lap eating popcorn for the last 20m or so, which I rather enjoyed. Apart from the whole adventure being way too expensive (around $70 including popcorn, water, and parking), it was gorgeous to see his excited little face, thrilled by the whole experience.
Did you all enjoy the movie for that price?

It wasnt one I would rave about, but we definitely enjoyed the experience. And I dont have to explain how Santa delivers all those presents in the time frame 😉

We’ve taken the kids to the drive in at blacktown a couple of times. Fun! We’ve taken them to the cinema only once because it’s so ridiculously expensive, but I am desperate to see Hugo so we may go again during the hols.

I remember when Alex went to the cinema for the first time 🙂 It’s lovely seeing that fascination on their little faces. Inigo is gorgeous as always!
