Having just signed up for baseball, we spent much of the afternoon at the park getting some glove-time in. After our session of catch, the girls played at the playground for a couple hours.
Intending to finally see Eight Below, we went downtown to grab a bite to eat before catching the movie... but that was a mistake. The downtown restaurants were all VERY packed. Wait times were 1-3 hours for the most part. We did finally find a place with a 40-minute wait time, though it was going to be close to the movie start time before we could get out of there. When we were finally seated we had twenty minutes before show time. We ordered right away and I explained to the server our predicament. The server was quite helpful in moving us along, so we got out of there just in time and didn't miss any of the movie.
Darby LOVED the movie (she's a big-time dog person), though not the sad parts of course (SPOILER: only six of the eight dogs make it out alive). Shelby didn't get to watch the movie because of her school behavior the last couple weeks, so she had to stay at the day care. Of all the kid movies we've seen the last couple months, this one was definitely one of the more parent-friendly.
