September 10, 2010I don't know who was more excited about the sleepover at Aunt Kimmy's... me, Pearl, or my sister. I'm guessing my sister though, she misses us. Anyway, it's great having my sister around because she actually ASKS if Pearl can sleep over. There's no pleading from me at all! And Nick seems to enjoy it too. Although Pearl is convinced he sleeps on the couch with their dog, Juno, all the time and not just when she's there.
Whenever Pearl sleeps over at my sister's she insists on watching one of two movies - Peter Pan or The Nightmare Before Christmas. I have no clue how or why she picks the second one because I'm not sure if she's ever made it through the entire movie before. I think she just likes to say "Pumpkin Jack" over and over. I personally think it's weird. Needless to say, Pearl was thrilled to be at Kimmy's and Jeff and I were just as thrilled to get a chance to watch a non-Disney movie for once! Seriously, the only times we ever watch a "mom and dad" movie is when Pearl is at Grandma and Grandpa's or Kimmy's.
So we hunkered down to watch Avatar. We must be getting really old because it was a difficult decision... go to bed early or stay up until midnight watching a movie. Avatar won. I thought it was really good. Jeff thought it was so-so. But it didn't really matter what either of us thought - it was just nice to feel "pre-kids" again watching a movie and staying up late together.
