Cinderella

This past Saturday was an event that we have been waiting on for a while.  We chose to wait to take Ava to the movie theater until she could sit and maybe one day remember her first trip!

Saturday was the day!  Cinderella was the perfect movie for her first experience. 

Clint was working Saturday and my sister was able to watch Brody.  We told her Friday night and I recorded it.  It is a precious movie that I hope we are able to cherish for years to come.  Such sweetness and excitement!  Makes me smile just thinking about it!

We got up and went to the "workout gym" as she calls it and my sister met us to pick up Brody. 

I asked her where she wanted to go to lunch and SONIC was the winner.  It was a beautiful Spring day, so we sat out on the picnic tables and ate lunch. 

Lunch was enjoyed and then it was time to go!!  I wanted to get there early so we could take it all in.  Go potty(we can't pause the movie, Ava) and eat some popcorn. (which was a big treat!) 

The theater we chose to go to is this 1 movie theater in the next town over.  I used to go there when I was little and the prices are cheap! 

The lights went out and she got super excited in anticipation. We knew there was going to be a FROZEN cartoon about Anna's birthday, that we did NOT want to miss. 

She liked it, but said it was too short! haha!

Cinderella was such a good movie.  I recommend it!  So magically and girly!  Ava would sit in her seat, sit in my lap and repeat.  We had to go to the bathroom once.  She did really well and liked the movie!

I am so glad we were able to do this special event with just me and her.  I am going to put her ticket stub in her "hope chest" and probably print out this post to put with it! 

I want her to grow up and appreciate the little things in life.  Her first movie was with her mama after eating lunch at Sonic and sharing popcorn in a one movie theater.

I want her to know that I will hold that day in my heart as one of our special moments!
