Fun Family Day

We spent our Saturday doing lots of fun family things together.  First, we went to breakfast which tends to be our regular Saturday morning routine.  My Mom and Dad, Aunt Donna, and Tiffany and Patrick came too.  After breakfast we surprised Meredith with a trip to the movie theater.  We took her to see Gnomeo and Juliet in 3D.  I didn't know before arriving at the theater that the movie was going to be in 3D, and I quickly got a little nervous about whether or not Meredith would like that. 

She loved it!
We all enjoyed the movie, and watching it in 3D was pretty neat.  I had never seen a movie in 3D before.  I would definitely do it again.  The movie was actually really cute.  Meredith liked it, and she only asked to go the bathroom once.

She was pretty into it.  The best part was at the end when the characters dance to a remix of "Crocodile Rock".  I so wish it hadn't been so dark in the theater, because I would have loved to get Meredith on video dancing away! We don't go to the movies that often, but I think we will definitely be going back after April 1st to see HOP.  It looks so cute, and Meredith is really wanting to see it!

On Friday night, Creig and I went bike shopping for me.  Creig and Meredith both have bikes, but I didn't have one.  We really wanted to all be able to ride our bikes together, and what better way to get exercise together too!  We found a really nice Schwinn Cruiser.  It looks like an older style bike to me, and I love it.  We bought it, and got helmets for all of us too. 

When we got home from the movies Saturday, we all put our helmets on and went for a ride together.  We quickly decided that Meredith wasn't going to be able to keep up with us, so it was more of a slow, leisurely ride.  We have a bike trailer, so I think we will let Meredith ride when we really want to be able to ride our bikes at a good speed.

It was such a beautiful, sunny day.  I love weekends like this, and I am so glad Meredith loves to ride her bike!
