Drive-in

Well I can add something to the pros list for Abilene. Abilene has a drive-in movie theater just a few blocks away from our house. We loved going to the drive-in when we were living in San Diego and we hadn't been since. Last night we loaded the car with blankets, hot chocolate (it was in the 40's), popcorn, and other treats and headed off to see Madagascar 2. We opened the back of the mini-van and huddled inside with blankets and watched the movie. We had so much fun. Ethan was absolutely thrilled with the idea of watching a movie outside. Lorin was the only one old enough to remember the drive in and she liked remembering all the times we spent at the there. Brynn liked being able to run around outside and not be confined to a seat like she would if we were in a movie theater. Gary and I even liked the movie. I really don't like most kids movies, but this one was cute and funny. It was the perfect night as a family. Best of all it was cheaper than a regular movie in a movie theater. I highly recommend going to one if you can. If you don't live near one you can always visit us.
