Alamo Drafthouse

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

With Grandma and Papa here, there was lots of fresh fruit.  Evan took full advantage and ate a ton of fruit this morning.  He essentially ate enough to feed him through lunch.  Meanwhile, Noah ate 3 Eggo Waffles.

I had a call this morning with a client while this was going on.

Today was a "training day" for the Alamo Drafthouse on Slaughter Lane.  Their soft opening is on March 8 while their grand opening is on March 22.  But today they were having $2 movies with half-priced food.  We had gotten tickets to see Happy Feet 2.  We got over there early in case it was really crowded.  It wasn't too bad.  Before we were seated, I began talking with one of the manager.  She offered to take, Evan, Noah and me on a little tour.

You could tell it was training.  There were some mix-ups with the food.  But you can't beat it for the price.  It is definitely, by far, the nicest Alamo Drafthouse.  It's great that it's right by our house.

When we got home, Grandma and Papa left.  I had to do some work while the boys played outside.

Rachel and I had eaten a lot so we didn't feel like dinner but we told the boys that if they cleaned up before dinner, we could go to Rita's Water Ice.  Evan cleaned up everything by himself, while Noah threw a massive fit that lasted until we left for Rita's.  In that time, not only did Evan clean up his room and the game room, he also had his dinner.

We told Noah he was not allowed to have anything at Rita's.  He seemed ok with it until we got into Rita's.  I ended up eating my water ice in the car with him because he was not behaving in the store.

By the time we got home, he had calmed down.  I think he'll go to sleep well. I don't hear any noise upstairs.

Until next time...
