Great Movie

We just saw "Night at the Museum."

Great movie! It's like this move was made for homeschoolers. It's about a night watchman at the Natural History Museum in NYC. It was nice to see the museum, especially since I was just telling the kids all about the Egypt exhibit. We all enjoyed it and I'm glad we changed our plans from seeing Happlily N'ever After, which I learned was getting very poor reviews and would not have been nearly as good as this one.

All the exhibits come to life at night and the hero needs to brush up on his history in order to figure out how to keep everyone under control. The first exhibit that comes to life makes you feel like it might get scary but quickly reveals its cute outcome.

It was the perfect way to spend a rainy afternoon. But, the price was a killer. $30 for the four of us--and that was the matinee price!

That and dinner at IHOP made it a $60 outing for us. It really was a good movie to see on the big screen, but movies just shouldn't be that expensive!

MLK Day today. Not sure what to do with ourselves today. Already noon and we've just been hanging around. Going to surf around and see if there's anything interesting to do.
