The Avengers

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

With Rachel in Dallas, we were not going out for Mother's Day Brunch.  So I promised the boys we'd go see the Avengers.  I had two coupons for a free small popcorn with purchase of an Icee.  The boys always want both popcorn and Icees at the movie theater so this worked out perfectly.

I had spoken with two different dads about whether the movie was appropriate for kids.  It definitely was good for Evan.  It was a little long for Noah.  There was a lot of fighting but no cursing and really minimal blood.  The boys loved seeing the Hulk and Ironman.  Evan liked Black Widow as well.  It was a good movie.

After that, we went to Dick's Sporting Goods.  We had to return something and I wanted to look at some baseball stuff for the boys.  We got a screen where you throw the ball against it and it bounces back.  We also got some baseballs.  I set it up in the backyard and both boys were taking turns with their gloves on throwing the ball.  I think it's going to be great for them.

I asked the boys to clean up after they came in and then we played some Wii.

During dinner, we watched the old movie Mouse Hunt on Netflix.

The boys are in bed and sleeping now.
