Way back when....

This weekend we took a break from our busy Sunday and took Luke to see the new Ice Age movie. I must say this was a great movie for the kids and the grown ups.


What I found so fun about going to see this movie with my son was the fact that approximately 7 years ago Eric and I saw the first Ice Age movie in the theaters. 2002 seems so long ago...


I remember this specifically because we went and watched it while we were in Chicago. We took a long weekend and spent it joyfully exploring Chicago. Silly us, we decided to go to Chicago at the end of March. Hello, it is freezing cold still in March, especially in Chicago. This prompted us to go inside where it was warm and watch a movie and we picked Ice Age. I guess we are big kids at heart because even before kids we were going to kid movies. I even remember the theater being so different because it was in a big tall building with lots of escalators to take you to which ever floor your theater was on, so different from my suburb type life style.


To my point, this was our last trip as a childless couple. Luke was born the end of December that same year (do the math). LOL... Did I mention it was really cold that weekend. ;-)

That's really cool. What a trip! It's amazing how much changes as time goes by, and how quickly it goes by! I thought the first ice-age movie was really cute. We'll be excited to see this 3rd one!

My husband and I never had life before kids. So we don't have anything to compare it to.

That's funny!! Thanks for visiting my blog. We went to see Ice Age a couple weeks back too. We loved it. I thing it was even better than the first two.
