"Monsters vs. Aliens"

Last Wednesday evening, while Leslie hosted the neighborhood bunko group, Jack and I took Landon on his first-ever "guy night." After stopping by Noodles & Company so Jack could get some plain penne pasta (which they didn't even charge us for), the three of us went to see "Monsters vs. Aliens" — in 3-D and IMAX. It was awesome! As if animation isn't realistic enough these days, all the 3-D effects were really impressive. At one point, Jack even rose up out of his seat and started reaching toward the screen. And like usual, Landon was good as gold; he never made a peep.

The next day at school, Jack drew this picture. It's the movie theater, of course, with "AMC" at the top ... and a satellite dish off to the side.
