It’s so hard to believe it’s a New Year but it is a New Year. I am so excited to see where this New Year will bring our family. One of the things I want to do is make more time for my family. David and I both love the movies and haven’t been in a while.
I was excited to find the Movies below showing at Cinemark this week. I plan on seeing all of them thanks to Cinemark’s Reward Program which allows us to save money on movie tickets and snacks. We earn points to use throughout the year. If you haven’t checked out there reward program you should.
Have you seen any of these movies and if so which one’s and what did you think of the movies and why/ Which ones do you think we should see?
