Toys!

This is what the Otter and I did this afternoon.

We've been waiting years for this one.  I posted about the Toy Story movies several months back.  Here's what I wrote then:

Toy Story is just about our favorite movie series, ever.  It's tremendous.  When the 2nd movie came out, it was even better than the first but we might have just been biased because of a specific character (family knows what I mean).  I don't like to put out a lot of personal information, but look at the picture on the top of this entry.  That particular character is our hands-down favorite and Otter was absolutely thrilled when the 2nd movie came out and that character was in it.

We've been very excited about the new movie and hopeful that it would be done right.

Well, I have to say this:  not only was it done right, it was an absolutely fantastic way to end the series.  It has some scenes that might be a little hard for very young viewers, but it has such a special, sweet ending.  It was almost a tear-jerker in places, especially if you are the mother of a child who has grown up on the series and is now officially grown up!  Or maybe that's just me. :)

Toy Story 3 is definetely worth the extra cost for the 3D tickets and it was very deserving of the full treatment:  popcorn, candy, cokes.

Now, we're anxious for the blu-ray release!
