My 14th Annual Company Picnic

Photo-A-Day #4141

There are few days in a year that I look forward to more than the Annual Company picnic. I am with a company that still throws a giant company picnic. Aside from Health Insurance it is my favorite benefit for working here. Now that we have kids who do not need strollers and who can go on almost every ride in the place it is even more fun.

Pete’s Dragon is Now in Theaters

I got Allison a Petes Dragon Funko Pop

While we have yet to see it, Pete’s Dragon has hit the movie theaters. I really want to see it soon. It has been called the most magical movie of the year, PETE’S DRAGON! It has also been said that this is one of the best family movies of the year and equally perfect for kids and adults alike! I’ve been reading posts from my friend who have attended press events for the movie and those who have seen sneak previews of the movie and they have been very favorable. I look forward to introducing my kids to this version of Pete’s Dragon. They already know the original as it is Allison’s favorite movie. I found it fitting to get her the Elliott Funko Pop as a little surprise.

Below I have two hilarious Bryce Dallas “How-To” videos where she “teaches” you how to create a dragon costume for your cat and make delicious dragon cupcakes!
