SOmetimes it is easy to think of somethimes it is a little more difficult. Here are a few taht are in the making.<br /><br />The Princess and the Frog<br />For dinner we will have, Gumbo, Beignets, and Cajun Corn Bread<br /><br />Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs<br />This is probably a no brainer but Spagheti and Meatballs, and Pudding in a cloud for dessert. We will probably add some gummy bears on the side just beacuse that is a part that the kids quote a lot!<br /><br />Here are some movies we have done:<br /><br />High School Musical 3<br />We ate High school food. For us it was Cheese Zombies (bread with melted cheese inside!) corn, and Tots (as in Napolean Dynamite "Give me your Tots!")<br /><br />Ratatuille<br />We did omelletes for dinner with all the culinary fixin's and for dessert we had strawberry crepes.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/231459084344239979-3405746319669438223?l=busyornotfamilyfun.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>April J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/04024195968262556762noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-231459084344239979.post-13303042581659223032009-09-25T22:00:00.000-07:002009-11-01T09:55:15.623-08:00Our family loves doing dinner and a movie.
