Drive-In Disaster

Want to know what NOT to do with two kids under two? Go to the drive-in..

A favorite family pastime with Scarlett, Melinda and I will now be put on hold after a disastrous night at the Galaxy Drive-In last Saturday night. We went to see Alice in Wonderland (yes, we know it was a Tim Burton film - we knew the kids would never see it anyway - we wanted to see it). They managed to scream through most of the movie and just would not get to sleep until -- you guessed it -- the rolling credits at the end of the movie.

Once we had arrived on this beautiful evening, we had removed the car seats, dropped down the seats flat and let the play with a wide variety of toys while enjoying lots of snacks. I guess it was too small of a space. There was lots of wailing and gnashing of teeth. I thought I saw the horseman of the Apocalypse coming for a moment there because surely this was the end of the world.

This is one trip we will not be making for a few years.
