Every year my parents take us out on a date night during the Christmas season. It started when the Lord of the Rings movies came out during the Christmas season and we always excitedly went as a family and it has thence become a tradition. So, this year we braved the weather to meet as a family and watch "The Tale of Desperaux". I have to say my sister and I were super excited for this movie to come out because we LOVE the book. However, I think that sometimes reading the book before a movie is often times a prerequisite to be disappointed. We both were, to say the least disappointed with the outcome of this movie. I'm sure that if you were to go to the movie without reading the book it would be extremely cute - and Addison loved it. It is one that probably will be gracing the shelves of our movie library upon it's DVD release. I'm looking forward to watching it again and appreciating it for what it is this time.
After the movie we made our way through the snow to Johnny Carino's. We had a wonderful time of family fellowship and enjoyed yummy food (I recommend the Timballo to anyone who happens to find themselves there in the near future - it's really scrumptious!). We had a ton of fun on our winter excursion this year and look forward to many more fun family date nights in the future. Thanks mom and dad for starting this tradition (and paying for it) Hee! Hee!
