Since Blue is in school now we have decided to initiate the “weekend” into our lives.  See, ever since we’ve been married Kristin and I have rarely had a real weekend.  With my job weirdness we just made whatever day I was home or “off” a weekend, but now that Blue has started school, we officially have a Friday night.  Since this whole new Friday night thing is new to us, we have decided to start having movie night.

Tonight we went over to Kristin’s dad’s house barbecued some hamburgers and watched ‘Nim’s Island’.  I was almost asleep during the previews but ended up making it through the whole movie.  And surprisingly enough, it wasn’t terrible.  I mean, yeah, it’s a kids movie, and yeah it’s unrealistic to think Jodie Foster could travel to the other side of the world in a day and a half to rescue an eleven year-old girl that’s living on an unknown island by herself with her friends a sea lion, a lizard and a pelican, but The Matrix wasn’t real either, so I can get past that.  Anyone seen it?

What was your favorite kids movie growing up? I’d have to go with “The Goonies”.
