'Cars' in a car
Well, a van really, but that's just semantics. Last night, as part of our Father's Day Extravaganze weekend, the boys and I took Hank to the Harpersville Drive-in to see 'Cars.' We packed up a bunch of snacks and drinks, and took out the back seat of the van. Then we piled in pillows and blankets and headed to the 'veters' as Tres calls them. The boys loved it!! It was a little humid, but they loved the freedom of laying down when they wanted to, of talking when they wanted to, and eating what they wanted to. It was a treat! And it cost us less... just $10 for all of us. And we found a quick way to get back to Calera from Harpersville, so it was all good for us!
Oh, I had the most fun aggravating Tres... sort of turning the tables on him because he is generally the one annoying the snot our of Bryant. While the previews were on, I started singing "Stranded at the drive-in... Branded a fool... What will they say... Monday at school!" Tres kept going, "Mom, if you don't be quiet, you will have to leave!" and shushing me. It was quite funny to me!

How fun is that!! brings back memories. When we were kids, my Mom would make us all get a bath, put on clean pj's, her and Daddy would load us all up in the station wagon with pillows, blankets, a thermos of ice water, grocery bag full of hot home popped pop-corn with lots of butter and we would head out to the drive-in theatre. This would be just about every week-end in the summer. Daddy would pull up to the speaker, get his lounge chair out, set it up in front of the car and Mama would make us a pallet on the ground beside Daddy's chair and then there would be one in the back of the station wagon as well. Daddy would also go to the concession stand and bring back, hot dogs, hamburgers, candy etc....
We almost always would be able to see shooting stars.
Thanks for the memories Jamie!!!
Danny and I are going to have to have a drive-in date night in his corvette.
