Fancy Shirts & Pixie Sticks?

Bennett found a fancy shirt in his closet.  (The great thing about B's growth chart is that his clothes last a long time...)  He decided he needed to go somewhere fancy in his fancy shirt.  He asked me if we could go on a date.  Certainly, IF we could find a babysitter for Harps.  Fortunately, Andy was available - and he's cheap.

Bennett and I went to an afternoon showing of "Gnomeo and Juliet", and of course, we purchased the obligatory kid's combo of popcorn and beverage.  The above stated combo comes with a pixie stick.  Really?  Who thought giving a kid a pixie stick before a 90 minute movie was a good idea?  Probably those same people who believe No Child should be Left Behind by 2014...  But, I digress...

The movie was a hit.   We only had to take two breaks; one bathroom, one licorice.  I'll probably go out with him again.
