Popcorn and a movie

We decided to have our first "official" movie night with the boys. We rented Fred Claus and popped real popcorn. I always have popcorn parties with my kids at school, but never do bring the air popper home, until now! The boys were so PSYCHED!!! Here they are just staring at the popcorn seeds in the popper...still not exactly sure of what is going to happen, but understanding that they have to WAIT...
And WAIT...
And wait....until the seeds start to "dance" and they POP!!! All three boys were jumping up and down. This was such an awesome talking time for Luke....too!!! He was going around saying "seed pop, seed pop!"
Until finally it was ready to eat!
I hope to have some Christmas pictures posted on here later tonight! Right now I have a houseful here, but I'm hanging downstairs with Dan as he feverishly has put together TONS of toys as Santa was oh to generous this year!!! And, I'm hoping that he puts my RockBand together next!!! Here's hoping that everyone had a wonderful Christmas!!!

The boys look so cute watching and waiting for the popcorn to pop. I bet this was not as good as Papa Jack's stir crazy popcorn. I guess the next time the boys spend the night at Nana and Papa instead of funnel cakes I will hve to pull out the stir crazy and watch them go crazy as the pop corn pops. Luke looks so cute as does the other 3 boys waiting and watching.
I can't wait to play rock band, I guess I'll have to play when Dan is at work. Had a great time Christmas day at your house.
Peace.

Sounds like you guys had a good time. However, I'm siding with Papa Jack on this one- the popcorn probably wasn't as good as his heavily guarded recipe. Maybe if you suck up to him he will give you the recipe.
