My Movie Girl!

This one is for you Mum after saying it had been ages since I posted the other day! I know I still need to do Christmas too... And I was looking at old posts during a loooong night shift the other night and I noticed I never did get round to posting pictures of our new kitchen which has been finished for ages now - so I'll do that soon too.

But this post is about Emma's love affair with movies. She use to have a very real fear about the trailers/previews - why, not completely sure?? Anyway now she quite likes them and it seems to work in encouraging her to go to more movies.

This holiday season despite it being Summer we've managed to see three movies. Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs - on the last day of kindy. The Princess & the Frog - which she saw with just me - she decided one day that she sees lovely girly movies with Mummy and silly ones with Daddy - suits me!! And then on Saturday she saw Alvin & the Chipmunks her first movie with Grandma.

Since seeing Alvin she has been playing 'Alice in Wonderland' which is a trailer she saw. She loves acting out movies. I saw in a magazine the other day that one of the latest things in a America at the moment is movie-oke (don't know how to spell it..) Basically like karaoke but you act a movie scene on stage instead. The pictures surrounding it had Kate & Leo on the Titanic in that classic I'm flying scene. And they also had the Meg Ryan - Harry met Sally cafe scene! What classic movie scene would you act out? Anyway here's some pictures that I took while leaving the cinema after watching the Princess & the Frog. It started a chain reaction of others taking the same kind of photos!
