Bear Tooth

Watching movies with my hubby has always been our greatest evening routine. Cuddling on the couch to watch a movie together after a long day is exactly what I need half the time. With Levi out of town, a friend and I decided to take our boys to the Bear Tooth Theatre to see the new Toy Story 3 in 3D! For those of you not familiar with this place, it is exactly what I imagine a movie theater should be. The price of admission is only $3.50 (kiddos free if you place them on your lap) and they only have one showing at a time. Before entering, you place your food order (pizza, salads, tacos, bread sticks, desserts, you name it!) and then make your way into the theater. Every other row consists of seats, but directly in front of your chair is a TABLE. Yes, a table! As the lights dim and the previews begin, your food is delivered right to you! Amazing, huh? I wish I would have thought of this idea first...this place is ALWAYS packed! It is sectioned off into two levels- the balcony for those under 21 and the lower level for supervised children and adults (with a full service bar right in the theater).

Lucas did fantastic and I was shocked that he actually wore the 3D glasses half of the time. This was his very first time in a movie and he couldn't stop saying "WOAH!" and explaining everything he saw. He is going through a "big" phase right now, so of course he had to continue yelling "BIG MOVIE!" Thank goodness there were nearly 100 other children and it didn't bother anyone! I can't wait for hubby to get home so we can go again. The food was good and not near as expensive as the nasty greasy stuff you get at a typical theater. So it looks like there is no more need to get a sitter just for us to go out to a movie. Well... at least not every time. Mommy and Daddy still need a few date nights here and there!
