Sing with Me! "I Like to Move It, Move It. I Like to Move It, Move It. I Like to Move It, Move It. I Like to MOVE IT!"

We had a Madagascar themed family movie night on Saturday. We've had this movie forever, but Zoë has never really sat down and watched it, so viola! I have decided that unless there is a fantastic movie coming out, we are going to watch the DVDs from our collection for FMN. We have a ridiculous amount of DVDs at our house. I didn't realize quite how many until I put them all in the binders a couple weeks ago. I am also putting a freeze on DVD purchases. I can't even tell you how many movies we own that we have only watched one time. Ridiculous!

We all loved the movie. Zoë sat through 95% of the movie which is huge for her. She was more interested scootering around the house with her new Madagascar toys towards the end, but that's OK. Props included safari hats from the local party supply store and the toys from our fancy cupcakes.

I've got to say, they look cooler than most cupcakes I make, but mine definitely taste better. Of course, I have never been a fan of most grocery store bakery frosting (Costco being the exception.) The little characters have been Zoë's constant companions ever since watching the movie. They bathe with her, have come to IHOP with us, and they sleep with her. And all I had to do was pick it up at the store on Saturday afternoon. Twelve dollars well spent.

Did you know that Madagascar 2 is coming out this fall? I didn't until I was searching for a movie link for this post. It looks pretty cute. We may have to go see that in the theaters. I think next weekend we are going to go see this movie for family movie night. Kelly has been wanting to see it ever since we saw the trailer six months ago, and it will be Father's Day weekend after all...

I'll be back with more scrapbooking goodness later. Miss Zoë is waking up from her nap and there are some chocolate cupcakes on the counter that will be disappearing if I don't get upstairs fast. LOL!
