Open Season with Gabriela

Gabriela and I took in another great movie last week, Open Season. We have developed our own little movie outing routine. First we must go and look at all the posters of all the movies that are currently playing and discuss each one. Then I give Gabriela the money to pay the lady for the tickets (although she will not request the tickets). Her little hand just shows up under the slot to provide the money. Any change is then expected to be saved until we get back home to put in her piggy bank. Then we stand in line to get the kids pack of popcorn, drink and candy in a cute (but overly priced) box. Gabriela informs me that she would like to have water and lots of butter on the popcorn, please. We get into the theater, find our seats, get situated (which takes much longer than you'd think) and sit there and WAIT...and wait...and then watch commericals from television to which Gabriela says - "CC, why are they showing commericals from tv...this is the movies?" (smart girl). "Let's get the movie started...I can see these at home!" (ha!).

Open Season is very cute and quite funny. Gabriela was cracking up the whole time - which in turn, tickled me. She has great timing and understanding of humor! Her funniest moment of the movie (in Gabriela's words) - When the big bear jumps up, shakes his booty and then gets in the back of the car!. Very funny indeed.

I love the movie tradition that Gabriela and I have started. I hope to do the same with Isabela & Maya...however, we may have to wait a little bit longer to embark on that journey.

Thanks Gabriela for the fun memories. CC loves you.
