We had a movie night tonight. Dawn's husband, Bill is out of town so she brought the kids over for dinner and a movie. We watched Lion King. My boys have never seen this one. I was a little nervous about the death scene with Simba's dad. When we watched "Finding Nemo" I skipped the scene when Nemo's mom dies. Matt of course asked what was happening and what was wrong with Simba's daddy. I told him he died and went to heaven. He asked what died meant and I told him it meant Simba's daddy wasn't alive anymore but was in heaven with God. Wow...maybe I should have thought that explanation through little more. Cartoon characters in heaven with God...I don't know! We brought the futon mattress into the family room and snuggled the kiddos up!
We took an intermission during the movie to make banana splits...yummy!! I have been so proud of our family's diet the past month, up until tonight! I made a new year's resolution to feed our family a mostly organic diet with focus on plant based foods. It is amazing the yummy things you can make. If anyone has any recipe ideas for me let me know!!!
We watched the documentary Food Inc. on New Year's Eve (yes, I know we are pathetic) and Karl and I decided to make some changes. I won't start in on our new food philosophy...just watch the documentary or ask and I'll love to tell you about the importance of organic produce, organic free range chicken, and organic grass feed beef!
Have a great weekend...oh, HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRAYDEN!!! Our little nephew is turning one!!!
