Movie Love: Up

We took the kids to see “Up” today. We all cried. And by we, I mean me. I’ve said a thousand billion times that I have movie love. And I do. I have that marriage where when one of us goes, passes away, forever, the other will slowly just sort of, go insane. Like TOTALLY COMPLETELY INSANE.

Or become an alcoholic.

Or both.

Which has nothing to do with the movie, necessarily, I’m just sayin’.

So my 2 yr old and my 4 yr old both sat through the entire film with my True Love sitting next to me and we would glance at each other knowingly and smile and touch hands throughout and laugh at our children’s wonder and excitement and realize that childhood is always the same.

We also used a lot of run-on sentences because sometimes a movie is so great, it gets run-on sentences.

We loved it. All of us. Baby (Toddler) O said, “MOAH! MOAH!” And LB said she liked the first part but that last part was kinda scary. And Mr. Flinger and I hugged and I cried and we said we loved each other and he called me his Ella.

And then we came home and sat on the porch together and ate Fish Tacos because it’s what we do.

I love him.

So go, please, take your family. We loved it. We’ll own it. And then we’ll make everyone we know see it. Because seriously, sometimes? Movie love? Is just that damn good.

    Aw man.  We really really want to go see it, but doubt the 11.5mo would cooperate.  Not fair.  raspberry

    We wanted to go, but I’m hesitant now with everyone saying it made them cry…

    Dude, I totally cried at least three times during the movie, and then by the end of it I was just so…HAPPY. I can’t remember the last time I walked out of a theater beaming like that.
