Family Movie Night

We decided to have our first movie night… Pizza, popcorn, the big screen. We even had our movie picked out earlier in the week. A friend recommended Secretariat. The pizza happened, but since it didn’t come out until later than expected, we ended up just watching it downstairs. The movie was a hit for both kids & adults. My soon-to-be 7 year old now knows that you need to win the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness, and the Beltmont in order to win the Triple Crown. He also learned that the last time it was done was before Uncle Mike was born- June 1973. His comment was- “that sure was a long time ago!”
After the pool today, they wanted to watch it again. They spent the next hour taking turns being Secretariat & racing around the house winning. It was fun until Maggie joined in & started chasing too!
