So maybe I'll take them after all

Anne-with-an-e, Betsy and Ramona were talking about movies yesterday.

"Wall*E is out!" said one.
"Yeah!" said another.
"We should go," said someone small.

Someone tall (no, not really, just taller than the someone small) said, "Sorry, guys. We've had our movie quota for the summer. Too pricey. We're saving disposable income (ha! I like to pretend we have some) for the big trip."

Faces fell, but they took the news bravely.

But I've just read on Catholic Exchange that perhaps this movie is worth the disposable income. Perhaps it's worth it, too, for the conversations it will spark about disposable income. Perhaps we'll go. We'll just skip the popcorn.

It's going to be our one movie of the summer, part of our Big City Outing.

It's so hard to find a movie worthy of spending money on these days...both because of economics, and also because kids movies that are wholesome are getting harder to come by! I saw the commercial for this one, and was hoping it might be as good as it looked...so after hearing it got good reviews, I think we're going to have to go, too! :)

I was blog hopping...stopped in at "Blessed Among Men" (which doesn't allow comments) and hopped over here from her link! :)

Nice to "meet" you...stop by anytime! (And I know Beck, too!)

Blessings,
