It’s hard to believe we are half-way through February and my family hasn’t attended a movie since the middle of last year. We had planned on seeing the Iron Clay but then we got sick and didn’t make it to the movies. I thought I might surprise David with tickets to a movie since he also missed out on Wonka.
I was choosing which movie to take David to go see I thought I would share a couple movies coming out and see which ones you would like to see .I know at one time Charlie had said he would like to see Ghostbusters” Frozen Empire but the last couple times when I’ve asked Charlie to go to the movies he’s refused. I’m done asking and will just get tickets for David and I unless you want to join us or my sister Deborah or my best friend Debbie wants to come with us.
