How To Train Your Dragon

Since we hadn't seen the movie yet, I decided to make it into a little theme day.

The girls woke up to HTTYD plate & cup, honey fish crackers, viking weapons and swedish fish to feed their pet dragons ... or to eat at the movie, if we were those kind of people who smuggle in candy.



Right away the girls wanted to color a picture of Astrid



play with their dragon friends



and have a good ol' viking fight



all before breakfast



After lunch we headed to the theater to meet the boys. The girls were so excited to see them (the boy's grandma had just been in town and the girls hadn't seen the boys in awhile). As we waited for the movie to start, all of them were around 1 race car game. 1 sat in the drivers seat, 1 stood to the left, 1 to the right, 1 stood on the back of the seat to see, and the other stood close by. Wish I would of had my camera, it was adorable. And just because, I want to write down how we sat. Melissa & Ryan, Me, Ash, Cody, Abigail and then Luke.

The movie was really cute, one I'm going to have to buy when it comes out. Abigail's favorite part was when toothless came and saved the boy's life and Ashlynn's was when the girl was flying the dragon.

Our first summer theme day complete, scratch that, I just remembered we had a Toy Story 3 day too. Look at me, that's our second summer theme day completed!

MONSTER day

I was at target a couple weeks ago and saw the cutest little plush monsters in their dollar bins. I bought them knowing they'd be perfect to give to the girls sometime during October. Then yesterday, I was back at Target and saw fun little monster decorating kits. I grabbed those and thought it'd be great to do a themed day (like a creative friend of mine always does) and declare today, October 1st, ... MONSTER day.

The girls woke up to their cute little plush monster friends.
They each made 4 monsters, well Abigail let me do one.
We made these monster cookies for the first time, they were super easy and yummy.
Watched Monsters vs Aliens.
Wrote stories about our monsters.

It was a fun day and now I think the girls will be expecting more theme days.
